[PATCH] fs/overlayfs: add splice file read write helper

[PATCH] fs/overlayfs: add splice file read write helper

[Murphy Zhou]

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.
