tmpfs: fix regressions from wider use of ZERO_PAGE

mainline inclusion
from mainline-v5.18-rc3
commit 1bdec44b
category: bugfix
bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I6113U
CVE: NA

Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=1bdec44b1eee32e311b44b5b06144bb7d9b33938

--------------------------------

Chuck Lever reported fsx-based xfstests generic 075 091 112 127 failing
when 5.18-rc1 NFS server exports tmpfs: bisected to recent tmpfs change.

Whilst nfsd_splice_action() does contain some questionable handling of
repeated pages, and Chuck was able to work around there, history from
Mark Hemment makes clear that there might be similar dangers elsewhere:
it was not a good idea for me to pass ZERO_PAGE down to unknown actors.

Revert shmem_file_read_iter() to using ZERO_PAGE for holes only when
iter_is_iovec(); in other cases, use the more natural iov_iter_zero()
instead of copy_page_to_iter().

We would use iov_iter_zero() throughout, but the x86 clear_user() is not
nearly so well optimized as copy to user (dd of 1T sparse tmpfs file
takes 57 seconds rather than 44 seconds).

And now pagecache_init() does not need to SetPageUptodate(ZERO_PAGE(0)):
which had caused boot failure on arm noMMU STM32F7 and STM32H7 boards
