1. Note that generic_copy_file_checks() can already shorten len,
    so maybe this should also be done there?? not sure..
2. Both ->remap_file_range() and splice cases already trim to MAX_RW_COUNT
    so the only remaining case for len > MAX_RW_COUNT are filesystems
    that implement ->copy_file_range() and actually support copying ranges
    larger than 2MB (don't know if they actually exist)

IOW, if we do:

if (splice || !file_out->f_op->copy_file_range || in_compat_syscall())
        len = min_t(loff_t, MAX_RW_COUNT, len);

We will not need to repeat the same trim of len in 3 different places
in this function.

Thanks,
Amir.
