Pull in-kernel read and write op cleanups from Christoph Hellwig:
 "Cleanup in-kernel read and write operations

  Reshuffle the (__)kernel_read and (__)kernel_write helpers, and ensure
  all users of in-kernel file I/O use them if they don't use iov_iter
  based methods already.

  The new WARN_ONs in combination with syzcaller already found a missing
  input validation in 9p. The fix should be on your way through the
  maintainer ASAP".

[ This is prep-work for the real changes coming 5.9 ]

<title>fs: Add IOCB_NOIO flag for generic_file_read_iter</title>

<id>41da51bce36f44eefc1e3d0f47d18841cbd065ba</id>
<content type='text'>
Add an IOCB_NOIO flag that indicates to generic_file_read_iter that it
shouldn't trigger any filesystem I/O for the actual request or for
readahead.  This allows to do tentative reads out of the page cache as
some filesystems allow, and to take the appropriate locks and retry the
reads only if the requested pages are not cached.
