A regression has been reported by Nicolas Boichat, found while using the
copy_file_range syscall to copy a tracefs file. Before commit
5dae222a5ff0 ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across devices") the
kernel would return -EXDEV to userspace when trying to copy a file across
different filesystems. After this commit, the syscall doesn't fail anymore
and instead returns zero (zero bytes copied), as this file's content is
generated on-the-fly and thus reports a size of zero.
This patch restores some cross-filesystem copy restrictions that existed
prior to commit 5dae222a5ff0 ("vfs: allow copy_file_range to copy across
devices"). Filesystems are still allowed to fall-back to the VFS
generic_copy_file_range() implementation, but that has now to be done
explicitly.
nfsd is also modified to fall-back into generic_copy_file_range() in case
vfs_copy_file_range() fails with -EOPNOTSUPP or -EXDEV.

Changes since v7
- set 'ret' to '-EOPNOTSUPP' before the clone 'if' statement so that the
error returned is always related to the 'copy' operation
Changes since v6
- restored i_sb checks for the clone operation
Changes since v5
- check if ->copy_file_range is NULL before calling it
Changes since v4
- nfsd falls-back to generic_copy_file_range() only *if* it gets -EOPNOTSUPP
or -EXDEV.
Changes since v3
- dropped the COPY_FILE_SPLICE flag
- kept the f_op's checks early in generic_copy_file_checks, implementing
Amir's suggestions
- modified nfsd to use generic_copy_file_range()
Changes since v2
- do all the required checks earlier, in generic_copy_file_checks(),
adding new checks for ->remap_file_range
- new COPY_FILE_SPLICE flag
- don't remove filesystem's fallback to generic_copy_file_range()
- updated commit changelog (and subject)
Changes since v1 (after Amir review)
- restored do_copy_file_range() helper
- return -EOPNOTSUPP if fs doesn't implement CFR
- updated commit description

I think this check is redundant, it's done in vfs_copy_file_range.
If this check is removed then the else clause below should be removed
also. Once this check and the else clause are removed then might as
well move the the check of copy_file_range from here to vfs_copy_file_range.
