commit 26578cda3db983b17cabe4e577af26306beb9987 upstream. ->splice_fd_in is used only by splice/tee, but no other request checks it for validity. Add the check for most of request types excluding reads/writes/sends/recvs, we don't want overhead for them and can leave them be as is until the field is actually used.

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.
