fs: add the fsnotify call to vfs_iter_write
A bug has been discovered when redirecting splice output to regular files
on EXT4 and tmpfs. Other filesystems might be affected.
This commit fixes the issue for stable series kernel, using one of the
change introduced during the rewrite and refactoring of vfs_iter_write in
4.13, specifically in the
commit
abbb65899aec ("fs: implement vfs_iter_write using do_iter_write").
This issue affects v4.4 and v4.9 stable series of kernels.
Without this fix for v4.4 and v4.9 stable, the following upstream commits
(and their dependencies would need to be backported):
* commit
abbb65899aec ("fs: implement vfs_iter_write using do_iter_write")
* commit
18e9710ee59c ("fs: implement vfs_iter_read using do_iter_read")
* commit
edab5fe38c2c
("fs: move more code into do_iter_read/do_iter_write")
* commit
19c735868dd0 ("fs: remove __do_readv_writev")
* commit
26c87fb7d10d ("fs: remove do_compat_readv_writev")
* commit
251b42a1dc64 ("fs: remove do_readv_writev")
as well as the following dependencies:
* commit
bb7462b6fd64
("vfs: use helpers for calling f_op->{read,write}_iter()")
* commit
0f78d06ac1e9
("vfs: pass type instead of fn to do_{loop,iter}_readv_writev()")
* commit
7687a7a4435f
("vfs: extract common parts of {compat_,}do_readv_writev()")
In order to reduce the changes, this commit uses only the part of
commit
abbb65899aec ("fs: implement vfs_iter_write using do_iter_write")
that fixes the issue.
