A test program from the rr[0] test suite, vm_readv_writev[1], no
longer works on 5.10-rc1 when compiled as a 32 bit binary and executed
on a 64 bit kernel. The first process_vm_readv call (on line 35) now
fails with EFAULT. I have bisected this to
c3973b401ef2b0b8005f8074a10e96e3ea093823.
It should be fairly straightforward to extract the test case from our
repository into a standalone program.

Can you check with this applied?

_ouch_
There's a bug, all right, but I'm not sure that this is all there is to it.
For now it's probably the right fix, but... Consider the fun trying to
use that from 32bit process to access the memory of 64bit one. IOW, we
might want to add an explicit flag for "force 64bit addresses/sizes
in rvec".

Ouch yes good point, nice catch.
