Subject: [git pull] splice fixups

	A couple of fixups for interaction of pipe-backed iov_iter with
O_DIRECT reads + constification of a couple of primitives in uio.h missed
by previous rounds.  Kudos to davej - his fuzzing has caught those bugs.

	One conflict in mm/filemap.c, resolved in an obvious way.
