read(2) is allowed from a swapfile, so copy_file_range(2) should
be allowed as well.

Darrick,
This fixes the generic/554 issue reported by Ted.
I intend to remove the test case of copy from swap file from
generic/554, so test is expected to pass with or without this fix.
But if you wait for next week's xfstests update before applying
this fix, then at lease maintainer that run current xfstests master
could use current copy-file-range-fixes branch to pass the tests.
Thanks,
Amir.
