perhaps this needs a TODO or FIXME or XXX to make sure an ext4
maintainer does not miss this question.

Perhaps adding comments saying that .splice_read and .splice_write are
unavailable here would help understanding why we need a different file
operations structure.

Good question! It would be interesting to get an answer :)

missing newline.

err is simply unused here, that does not look good (silent failure).

Shouldn't a length < 0 be treated as an error instead ?
