[PATCH] splice: fix wrong __splice_from_pipe() usage

From: OGAWA Hirofumi

Hi,

I've noticed the nfsd read corruption by recent change. And this patch
fixes the problem for me, is this right fix?

__splice_from_pipe() is updating the sd->pos for the actor, but those
functions are passing the sd of reader side directory. So, splice
updates sd->pos twice.

This fixes usage of __splice_from_pipe().
