Pull vfs dedup fixes from Dave Chinner:
 "This reworks the vfs data cloning infrastructure.

  We discovered many issues with these interfaces late in the 4.19 cycle
  - the worst of them (data corruption, setuid stripping) were fixed for
  XFS in 4.19-rc8, but a larger rework of the infrastructure fixing all
  the problems was needed. That rework is the contents of this pull
  request.

  Rework the vfs_clone_file_range and vfs_dedupe_file_range
  infrastructure to use a common .remap_file_range method and supply
  generic bounds and sanity checking functions that are shared with the
  data write path. The current VFS infrastructure has problems with
  rlimit, LFS file sizes, file time stamps, maximum filesystem file
  sizes, stripping setuid bits, etc and so they are addressed in these
  commits.

  We also introduce the ability for the ->remap_file_range methods to
  return short clones so that clones for vfs_copy_file_range() don't get
  rejected if the entire range can't be cloned. It also allows
  filesystems to sliently skip deduplication of partial EOF blocks if
  they are not capable of doing so without requiring errors to be thrown
  to userspace.

  Existing filesystems are converted to user the new remap_file_range
  method, and both XFS and ocfs2 are modified to make use of the new
  generic checking infrastructure"
