fs/pipe: allow sendfile() to pipe again
commit f8ad8187c3b536ee2b10502a8340c014204a1af0 upstream. After commit36e2c7421f
("fs: don't allow splice read/write without explicit ops") sendfile() could no longer send data from a real file to a pipe, breaking for example certain cgit setups (e.g. when running behind fcgiwrap), because in this case cgit will try to do exactly this: sendfile() to a pipe. Fix this by using iter_file_splice_write for the splice_write method of pipes, as suggested by Christoph. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes:36e2c7421f
