3.2.67-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> We need to check the position and size of file writes against various limits, using generic_write_check(). This was not being done for the splice write path. It was fixed upstream by commit 8d0207652cbe ("->splice_write() via ->write_iter()") but we can't apply that.
