[PATCH 4/5] splice: Use sync wakeup for splice_from_pipe_next()

[Namhyung Kim]

Sync wakeup is a hint to the scheduler that means a waker would go to
sleep right soon.  In splice_from_pipe_next(), it calls pipe_wait()
after calling wakeup_pipe_writers() so it'd be better using sync
wakeup rather than normal one.
