[PATCH v17 07/14] splice: Do splice read from a file without using ITER_PIPE

[PATCH v17 07/14] splice: Do splice read from a file without using ITER_PIPE

[David Howells]

Make generic_file_splice_read() use filemap_splice_read() and
direct_splice_read() rather than using an ITER_PIPE and call_read_iter().

Make cifs use generic_file_splice_read() rather than doing it for itself.

Unexport filemap_splice_read().

With this, ITER_PIPE is no longer used.

Please split the cifs patch out into a separate one.

Otherwise this looks good:

Okay - I've done that.  It needs to go after this one and the unexport of
filemap_splice_read() needs to go with it (or in a separate follow-up patch).
