This\niterator reaches netfs_limit_iter() via netfs_unbuffered_write(), which\nonly handles ITER_FOLIOQ, ITER_BVEC and ITER_XARRAY iterator types,\nhitting the BUG() for any other type.\n\nFix this by adding netfs_limit_kvec() following the same pattern as\nnetfs_limit_bvec(), since both kvec and bvec are simple segment arrays\nwith pointer and length fields.
