fs/splice: Pull buf->ops->confirm() from splice_from_pipe actors
This patch pulls calls to buf->ops->confirm() from all actors passed (also indirectly) to splice_from_pipe_feed(). Is avoiding the call to buf->ops->confirm() while splice()ing to /dev/null is an intentional optimization? No other user does that and this will remove this special case.
