mm: hwpoison: coredump: support recovery from dump_user_range()
dump_user_range() is used to copy the user page to a coredump file, but if
a hardware memory error occurred during copy, which called from
__kernel_write_iter() in dump_user_range(), it crashes,

Generally, the '->write_iter' of file ops will use copy_page_from_iter()
and copy_page_from_iter_atomic(), change memcpy() to copy_mc_to_kernel()
in both of them to handle #MC during source read, which stop coredump
processing and kill the task instead of kernel panic, but the source
address may not always a user address, so introduce a new copy_mc flag in
struct iov_iter{} to indicate that the iter could do a safe memory copy,
also introduce the helpers to set/cleck the flag, for now, it's only used
in coredump's dump_user_range(), but it could expand to any other
scenarios to fix the similar issue.
