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.

+# Check for missing #include <linux/export.h>
+#
+# The rule for including <linux/export.h> is very simple:
+# Include <linux/export.h> only when you use EXPORT_SYMBOL(). That's it.
+#
+# However, some headers include <linux/export.h> even though they are completely
+# unrelated to EXPORT_SYMBOL().
+#
+# One example is include/linux/module.h. Please note <linux/module.h> and
+# <linux/export.h> are orthogonal. <linux/module.h> should be included by files
+# that can be compiled as modules. In other words, <linux/module.h> should be
+# included by EXPORT_SYMBOL consumers. In contrast, <linux/export.h> should be
+# included from EXPORT_SYMBOL providers, which may or may not be modular.
+# Hence, include/linux/module.h should *not* include <linux/export.h>.
+#
+# Another example is include/linux/linkage.h, which is completely unrelated to
+# EXPORT_SYMBOL(). Worse, it is included by most C files, which means, most C
+# files end up including <linux/export.h>, even though only some of them
+# actually export symbols. Hence, include/linux/linkage.h should *not* include
+# <linux/export.h>.
+#
+# Before fixing such headers, we must ensure that C files using EXPORT_SYMBOL()
+# include <linux/export.h> directly, since many C files currently rely on
+# <linux/export.h> being included indirectly (likely, via <linux/linkage> etc.).
+#
+# Therefore, this check.
+#
+# The problem is simple - the warned files use EXPORT_SYMBOL(), but do not
+# include <linux/export.h>. Please add #include <linux/export.h> to them.
+#
+# If the included headers are sorted alphabetically, please insert
+# <linux/export.h> in the appropriate position to maintain the sort order.
+# For this reason, this script only checks missing <linux/export.h>, but
+# does not automatically fix it.
