Subject: [PATCH] vfs: fix early copy_file_range return when len is zero

The early return from copy_file_range when len is zero should check if the
filesystem really implements this syscall, returning -EOPNOTSUPP if it doesn't,
and 0 otherwise.

Hi!

Since I got not feedback, I'm sending a patch that should fix this issue
reported by 0day.  Probably this should simply be squashed into v9, I can
send v10 if you prefer that.

Cheers,
