async_tx: fix kmap_atomic usage in async_memcpy
Andrew Morton:
[async_memcpy] is very wrong if both ASYNC_TX_KMAP_DST and
ASYNC_TX_KMAP_SRC can ever be set. We'll end up using the same kmap
slot for both src add dest and we get either corrupted data or a BUG.
Evgeniy Polyakov:
Btw, shouldn't it always be kmap_atomic() even if flag is not set.
That pages are usual one returned by alloc_page().
So fix the usage of kmap_atomic and kill the ASYNC_TX_KMAP_DST and
ASYNC_TX_KMAP_SRC flags.
