Subject: [PATCH] relayfs: fix infinite loop with splice()

Running kmemtraced, which uses splice() on relayfs, causes a hard lock on
x86-64 SMP.  As described by Tom Zanussi:

  It looks like you hit the same problem as described here:

  commit 8191ecd1d14c6914c660dfa007154860a7908857

      splice: fix infinite loop in generic_file_splice_read()

  relay uses the same loop but it never got noticed or fixed.
