iov_len must be set to sizeof(struct encoded_iov), which can be used to

I sent a man page as part of this thread:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-btrfs/c7e8f93596fee7bb818dc0edf29f484036be1abb.1571164851.git.osandov@xxxxxx/
See my reply to Dave, I have tests in my xfstests repo that I haven't
sent yet.
