compat breakage in preadv() and pwritev()

Fix for a dumb preadv()/pwritev() compat bug - unlike the native
variants, the compat_...  ones forget to check FMODE_P{READ,WRITE}, so
e.g.  on pipe the native preadv() will fail with -ESPIPE and compat one
will act as readv() and succeed.

Not critical, but it's a clear bug with trivial fix, so IMO it's OK for
-final.
