Both callers have the identical logics limiting the amount of
data we try to read into pipe - no more than would fit into
that pipe.  Move that into do_splice_to() itself.

With the set_fs change, we can no longer rely on copy_{to,from}_user()
accepting a kernel pointer, and it was bad form to do so anyway. Clean
this up and change the internal helper that io_uring uses to deal with
kernel pointers instead. This puts the offset copy in/out in __do_splice()
instead, which just calls the same helper.
