Coleman Kane 58a707375f Linux 6.5 compat: Use copy_splice_read instead of filemap_splice_read
Using the filemap_splice_read function for the splice_read handler was
leading to occasional data corruption under certain circumstances. Favor
using copy_splice_read instead, which does not demonstrate the same
erroneous behavior under the tested failure cases.
