Subject: fuse: fix pipe_buf_operations
From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxx>
commit 28a625cbc2a14f17b83e47ef907b2658576a32aa upstream.
Having this struct in module memory could Oops when if the module is
unloaded while the buffer still persists in a pipe.
Since sock_pipe_buf_ops is essentially the same as fuse_dev_pipe_buf_steal
merge them into nosteal_pipe_buf_ops (this is the same as
default_pipe_buf_ops except stealing the page from the buffer is not
allowed).
