Not sure if you have the whole history, these links and discussion can
help if you want to expand on the commit message:

It goes beyond that, I think this also prevents copies within the same
FS if copy_file_range is not implemented. Which is IMHO a good thing
since this has been broken on procfs and friends ever since
copy_file_range was implemented (but I assume that nobody ever hit
that before cross-fs became available).

You could replace that with Reported-by: Nicolas Boichat <drinkcat@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

This doesn't work as the 0-filesize check is done before that in
vfs_copy_file_range (so the syscall still returns 0, works fine if you
comment out `if (len == 0)`).

Also, you need to check for file_in->f_op->copy_file_range instead,
the problem is if the _input_ filesystem doesn't report sizes or can't
seek properly.
