Doing copy_file_range() on exfat with a file opened for direct IO leads
to an -EFAULT:
# xfs_io -f -d -c "truncate 32768" \
-c "copy_range -d 16384 -l 16384 -f 0" /mnt/test/junk
copy_range: Bad address
and the reason seems to be that we go through:
default_file_splice_write
splice_from_pipe
__splice_from_pipe
write_pipe_buf
__kernel_write
new_sync_write
generic_file_write_iter
generic_file_direct_write
exfat_direct_IO
do_blockdev_direct_IO
iov_iter_get_pages
and land in iterate_all_kinds(), which does "return -EFAULT" for our kvec
iter.
Setting exfat's splice_write to iter_file_splice_write fixes this and lets
fsx (which originally detected the problem) run to success from
the xfstests harness.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
