Unlikely, since that particular commit removes unlocking/relocking ->iolock
around the call of splice_to_pipe(). Original would've retaken the same
lock on the way out; it's not as if we could leave the syscall there.

It might be splice-related, but I don't believe that you've got the right
commit here.
