[PATCH 5.4 45/61] ovl: add splice file read write helper

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Tue Aug 24 2021 - 13:17:47 EST


From: Murphy Zhou <jencce.kernel@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 1a980b8cbf0059a5308eea61522f232fd03002e2 ]

Now overlayfs falls back to use default file splice read
and write, which is not compatiple with overlayfs, returning
EFAULT. xfstests generic/591 can reproduce part of this.

Tested this patch with xfstests auto group tests.
