cifs: Fix unbuffered read
If read() is done in an unbuffered manner, such that, say, cifs_strict_readv() goes through cifs_user_readv() and thence __cifs_readv(), it doesn't recognise the EOF and keeps indicating to userspace that it returning full buffers of data. This is due to ctx->iter being advanced in cifs_send_async_read() as the buffer is split up amongst a number of rdata objects. The iterator count is then used in collect_uncached_read_data() in the non-DIO case to set the total length read - and thus the return value of sys_read(). But since the iterator normally gets used up completely during splitting, ctx->total_len gets overridden to the full amount. However, prior to that in collect_uncached_read_data(), we've gone through the list of rdatas and added up the amount of data we actually received (which we then throw away). Fix this by removing the bit that overrides the amount read in the non-DIO case and just going with the total added up in the aforementioned loop. This was observed by mounting a cifs share with multiple channels, e.g.: mount //192.168.6.1/test /test/ -o user=shares,pass=...,max_channels=6 and then reading a 1MiB file on the share: strace cat /xfstest.test/1M >/dev/null Through strace, the same data can be seen being read again and again.
