vfs: fix copy_file_range() averts filesystem freeze protection
Commit 868f9f2f8e00 ("vfs: fix copy_file_range() regression in cross-fs
copies") removed fallback to generic_copy_file_range() for cross-fs
cases inside vfs_copy_file_range().
To preserve behavior of nfsd and ksmbd server-side-copy, the fallback to
generic_copy_file_range() was added in nfsd and ksmbd code, but that
call is missing sb_start_write(), fsnotify hooks and more.
Ideally, nfsd and ksmbd would pass a flag to vfs_copy_file_range() that
will take care of the fallback, but that code would be subtle and we got
vfs_copy_file_range() logic wrong too many times already.
Instead, add a flag to explicitly request vfs_copy_file_range() to
perform only generic_copy_file_range() and let nfsd and ksmbd use this
flag only in the fallback path.
This choise keeps the logic changes to minimum in the non-nfsd/ksmbd code
paths to reduce the risk of further regressions.
