Subject[RFC PATCH 2/6] virtio/console: Add a failback for unstealable pipe buffer
Date
From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>

Add a failback memcpy path for unstealable pipe buffer.
If buf->ops->steal() fails, virtio-serial tries to
copy the page contents to an allocated page, instead
of just failing splice().
