From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>

Prefaulting the write source buffer incurs an extra userspace access
in the common fast path. Make fuse_fill_write_pages() consistent with
generic_perform_write(): only touch userspace an extra time when
copy_folio_from_iter_atomic() has failed to make progress.
