mainlining shenanigans
88a5045f17
snapshot_write() is inappropriately limiting the amount of data that can be written in cases where a partial page has already been written. For example, one would expect to be able to write 1 byte, then 4095 bytes to the snapshot device, and have both of those complete fully (since now we're aligned to a page again). But what ends up happening is we write 1 byte, then 4094/4095 bytes complete successfully. The reason is that simple_write_to_buffer()'s second argument is the total size of the buffer, not the size of the buffer minus the offset. Since simple_write_to_buffer() accounts for the offset in its implementation, snapshot_write() can just pass the full page size directly down.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
