Don't allow calling ->read or ->write with set_fs as a preparation for
killing off set_fs.  While I've not triggered any of these cases in my
setups as all the usual suspect (file systems, pipes, sockets, block
devices, system character devices) use the iter ops this is almost
going to be guaranteed to eventuall break something, so print a detailed
error message helping to debug such cases.  The fix will be to switch the
affected driver to use the iter ops.

Why 128? How about kstrdup_quotable_file()?

This is in the read/write path for the case where we did not end up
calling in the driver.  This is far less stack usage than any read/write
method would have used eventually.

how about just:

	pr_warn_ratelimited(
		"kernel %s not supported for file %pD4 (pid: %d comm: %.20s)\n",
			op, file, current->pid, current->comm);

also, is the pid really that interesting?

Yes, pid matters, especially when there may be many of something running
(e.g. rsync).

Sure, we could use %pD for a few less line of code and a little less
typesafety.  I'm not a huge fan of these custom, unchecked format
specifiers, but given that they exist we might a well use them.
