Subject: [PATCH 1/2] pipe: remove pipe_full check with wrong head in pipe_write

In pipe_write we have:
	head = pipe->head;
	if (!pipe_full(head, pipe->tail, pipe->max_usage))
		pipe->head = head + 1;
		/* write data to buffer at head */

	/* supposed to check if pipe is full after write */
	if (!pipe_full(head, pipe->tail, pipe->max_usage))
		continue

The second pipe_full expects head after write but head before write is
used. Luckily, we will call pipe_full with correct reloaded pipe->head
in new loop cycle and stop writing correctly. Remove wrong pipe_full
check and simply continue to first pipe_full check after write done to
avoid unnecessary check.

Fixes: a194dfe6e6f6 ("pipe: Rearrange sequence in pipe_write() to preallocate slot")
