[ Upstream commit 7b9762a5e8837b92a027d58d396a9d27f6440c36 ]
io_uring supports using offset == -1 for using the current file position,
and we read that in as part of read/write command setup. For the non-iter
read/write types we pass in NULL for the position pointer, but for the
iter types we should not be passing any anything but 0 for the position
for a stream.
Clear kiocb->ki_pos if the file is a stream, don't leave it as -1. If we
do, then the request will error with -ESPIPE.
Fixes: ba04291eb66e ("io_uring: allow use of offset == -1 to mean file position")

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.
