Commit Message

A regression has been reported by Nicolas Boichat, found while using the
copy_file_range syscall to copy a tracefs file.  Before commit
5dae222a5ff0 ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across devices") the
kernel would return -EXDEV to userspace when trying to copy a file across
different filesystems.  After this commit, the syscall doesn't fail anymore
and instead returns zero (zero bytes copied), as this file's content is
generated on-the-fly and thus reports a size of zero.

This patch restores some cross-filesystem copy restrictions that existed
prior to commit 5dae222a5ff0 ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across
devices").  Filesystems are still allowed to fall-back to the VFS
generic_copy_file_range() implementation, but that has now to be done
explicitly.

nfsd is also modified to use generic_copy_file_range() instead of
vfs_copy_file_range() so that it can still fall-back to splice without going
through all the checks.

Fixes: 5dae222a5ff0 ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across devices")

And here's v4.  I'd like to request help for testing.  I know Nicolas is
doing that (thanks!  and thanks for the reviews).  But it would be great to
get at least the nfs code tested.  Olga, can you help here?

Changes since v3
- dropped the COPY_FILE_SPLICE flag
- kept the f_op's checks early in generic_copy_file_checks, implementing
  Amir's suggestions
- modified nfsd to use generic_copy_file_range()
Changes since v2
- do all the required checks earlier, in generic_copy_file_checks(),
  adding new checks for ->remap_file_range
- new COPY_FILE_SPLICE flag
- don't remove filesystem's fallback to generic_copy_file_range()
- updated commit changelog (and subject)
Changes since v1 (after Amir review)
- restored do_copy_file_range() helper
- return -EOPNOTSUPP if fs doesn't implement CFR
- updated commit description
