I was waiting to see if the patch worked for Daniel (which it does) and
Guenter (no answer yet) before answering. It appears to fix shmem - I've
tested it with:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/sparse count=1 seek=401 bs=4096
just-splice /tmp/sparse 11234000 | sha1sum
where just-splice.c is attached (note that piping the output into another
program is important to make the splice work).
Meanwhile, I'm working on working the changes into my patchset at appropriate
points.
