netfs: zero the tail of a short DIO/unbuffered readgrafted
The buffered read collector zero-fills the tail of a short read that
stops below the inode's i_size (netfs_clear_unread()), so a read that
races an extending write still returns the expected number of bytes.
The non-buffered collector path does no such thing: it just records
how much was transferred.
Add the same zero-fill for the non-buffered case, gated on
NETFS_SREQ_CLEAR_TAIL: a subreq's source sets that flag when a short
result from it is known to be safe to treat as a hole, as opposed to
NETFS_SREQ_HIT_EOF, which means the read genuinely ran off the end of
the file and should be reported short as-is. Only CLEAR_TAIL should
zero-fill here; a real EOF must stay a real short read.
No source currently sets CLEAR_TAIL on an unbuffered/DIO subrequest,
so this is inert on its own -- a following change teaches cifs to set
it in the one case that needs it.
