[PATCH 2/3] splice: allow non-block splice only when in file is seekable

[Changli Gao <xiaosuo@gmail.com>]

allow non-block splice only when in file is seekable.

do_splice_to() is split to two parts: read data from in file to spd, and move
data from spd to pipe. If there isn't much space in pipe for the data in spd,
and the splice is called with non-block flag, the data dropped due to non
enough space in pipe will be lost forever when in file isn't seekable.
