That fallback looks safe and ok, I'm just not sure whether it'll be of great
help.  E.g. if we provide an QIO api that allows both sync write and zero-copy
write (then we do the fallback when necessary), it means the buffer implication
applies too to this api, so it's easier to me to just detect the zero copy
capability and use one alternative.  Thanks,
