Fix possible splice() mmap_sem deadlock

Browse Source 
Nick Piggin points out that splice isn't being good about the mmap
semaphore: while two readers can nest inside each others, it does leave
a possible deadlock if a writer (ie a new mmap()) comes in during that
nesting.

Original "just move the locking" patch by Nick, replaced by one by me
based on an optimistic pagefault_disable().  And then Jens tested and
updated that patch.
