VFS: implement sendfile file operation
Currently the sendfile syscalls hardcode assumptions about the implementation of the read file operations implementation. Although it checks for the presence of a readpage address-space operation filesystems in Linux are free to implement read differently from the generic version (generic_file_read). Many filesystems such as tmpfs, smbfs or xfs chose to implement it differently and need additional locking, revalidation or checks.
