[PATCH 6/6] fuse: optimize short direct reads

[Maxim V. Patlasov]

If user requested direct read beyond EOF, we can skip sending fuse requests
for positions beyond EOF because userspace would ACK them with zero bytes read
anyway. We can trust to i_size in fuse_direct_IO for such cases because it's
called from fuse_file_aio_read() and the latter updates fuse attributes
including i_size.
