I have to ask why. In a modern network, isn't all data encrypted?
So you have to encrypt into a different buffer, and then you checksum
that buffer. So it doesn't matter if writes can change the page cache
after you called splice(), you just need to have the data be consistent
so the checksum doesn't change.
