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

From: David Howells
Date: Wed Mar 08 2023 - 11:55:22 EST


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.
