OK, so it is iov_iter_advance() failing to free the shit allocated, either
due to some breakage in pipe_advance() or buggered 'copied'... Let's
see which one; could you apply the following and run your reproducer? The
only difference from the previous is that it collects and prints a bit more,
so it should be just as reproducible...
