aio: fix the compat vectored operations

Browse source 
The aio compat code was not converting the struct iovecs from 32bit to
64bit pointers, causing either EINVAL to be returned from io_getevents, or
EFAULT as the result of the I/O.  This patch passes a compat flag to
io_submit to signal that pointer conversion is necessary for a given iocb
array.

A variant of this was tested by Michael Tokarev.  I have also updated the
libaio test harness to exercise this code path with good success.
Further, I grabbed a copy of ltp and ran the
testcases/kernel/syscall/readv and writev tests there (compiled with -m32
on my 64bit system).  All seems happy, but extra eyes on this would be
welcome.
