This is the equivalent of memcpy_from_page().  It differs in that it
takes the position in a file instead of offset in a folio, it accepts
the total number of bytes to be copied (instead of the number of bytes
to be copied from this folio) and it returns how many bytes were copied
from the folio, rather than making the caller calculate that and then
checking if the caller got it right.

min() blows up on arm allnoconfig.

We could use min_t(), but perhaps and explanatorialy named variable is
nicer?

Oh, right, PAGE_SIZE is size_t everywhere except on ARM.

But buggy because we return the number of bytes copied.

I don't think remaining is a great name for this.  The key thing is
that for any platform we care about folio_test_highmem() is constant false,
so this just optimises away the min() call.

You could salvage this approach by doing

	len = min(remaining, len);
	memcpy(to, from, len);
	return len;

but I think it's probably better to just do min_t on the PAGE_SIZE line.
Stupid ARM.
