It is because commit a41dad905e5a ("iov_iter: saner checks for attempt to copy 
to/from iterator")
has introduced sanity check for copying from/to iov iterator. Lacking
of copy direction from the iterator viewpoint would lead to kernel
stack trace like above.

This commit fixes this issue by initializing the iov iterator with
the correct copy direction.
