Subject: [PATCH v2 02/10] vfs: verify source area in vfs_dedupe_file_range_one()

Call remap_verify_area() on the source file as well as the destination.

When called from vfs_dedupe_file_range() the check as already been
performed, but not so if called from layered fs (overlayfs, etc...)

Could ommit the redundant check in vfs_dedupe_file_range(), but leave for
now to get error early (for fear of breaking backward compatibility).

This call shouldn't be performance sensitive.
