Typo: s/Copyrigh/Copyright/

AIUI, the "(c) 2024" has no real purpose, see

The description of the provenance of the code and its authorship is
useful.  I don't think the second copyright notice is useful in this
case, since it's also Red Hat, like the first.  Likewise, I don't
think the GPL invocation is useful, since we're not changing that
license.

I feel like an IO vector is a common enough concept that we could just
say "IO vector" rather than this rather wordy description.

We could just open code this in iov_from_buf(), since I don't think we
ever have a reason to call it directly.

Other order for these locals please (longest to shortest).

No braces here (passt style, again).
