splice: implement default splice_read method
If f_op->splice_read() is not implemented, fall back to a plain read. Use vfs_readv() to read into previously allocated pages. This will allow splice and functions using splice, such as the loop device, to work on all filesystems. This includes "direct_io" files in fuse which bypass the page cache.
