Subject: [PATCH] fs/netfs/read_collect: add to next->prev_donated

If multiple subrequests donate data to the same "next" request
(depending on the subrequest completion order), each of them would
overwrite the `prev_donated` field, causing data corruption and a
BUG() crash ("Can't donate prior to front").

Fixes: ee4cdf7ba857 ("netfs: Speed up buffered reading")
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/netfs/CAKPOu+_4mUwYgQtRTbXCmi+-k3PGvLysnPadkmHOyB7Gz0iSMA@mail.gmail.com/

David, this seems to fix the bug for me.  Please also check if we need
a "donation_changed" check.
