vfs: make remap_file_range functions take and return bytes completed
Change the remap_file_range functions to take a number of bytes to operate upon and return the number of bytes they operated on. This is a requirement for allowing fs implementations to return short clone/dedupe results to the user, which will enable us to obey resource limits in a graceful manner. A subsequent patch will enable copy_file_range to signal to the ->clone_file_range implementation that it can handle a short length, which will be returned in the function's return value. For now the short return is not implemented anywhere so the behavior won't change -- either copy_file_range manages to clone the entire range or it tries an alternative. Neither clone ioctl can take advantage of this, alas. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
