Al Viro 4228c037f8 fix short copy handling in copy_mc_pipe_to_iter()
commit c3497fd009 upstream.

Unlike other copying operations on ITER_PIPE, copy_mc_to_iter() can
result in a short copy.  In that case we need to trim the unused
buffers, as well as the length of partially filled one - it's not
enough to set ->head, ->iov_offset and ->count to reflect how
much had we copied.  Not hard to fix, fortunately...

I'd put a helper (pipe_discard_from(pipe, head)) into pipe_fs_i.h,
rather than iov_iter.c - it has nothing to do with iov_iter and
having it will allow us to avoid an ugly kludge in fs/splice.c.
We could put it into lib/iov_iter.c for now and move it later,
but I don't see the point going that way...
