[PATCH Version 2 03/16] VFS SQUASH use file_out instead of file_in for copy_file_range

[<andros@netapp.com>]

From: Andy Adamson <andros@netapp.com>

Calling file_in->copy_file_range file operations function will not work for
NFS inter-server to server COPY. In the intra-ssc case, when the destination
server calls vfs_copy_file_range (from nfsd_copy_range) to perform the
copy offload, it uses an NFS client file_in struct file setup to let the
destination server (acting as an NFS client) NFS READ the data to be copied
from the source server. Using the NFS file_in thus results in calling
the NFS client copy_file_range f-ops, nfs4_copy_file_range, which results in
the destination server trying to start a new COPY (calling COPY_NOTIFY etc)
causing a circular call mess.

Instead, vfs_copy_file_range should use the file_out f_ops->copy_file_range
proceedure if it has one.  The vfs_copy_file_range is a destination based
operation as the source is simply being read, while the destination is being
written and can therefore utilize a copy_file_range call if provided.
