+ if (src_off >= inode->i_size) {
+ cifs_dbg(FYI, "nothing to do on copychunk\n");
+ goto cchunk_out; /* nothing to do */
+ } else if (src_off + len > inode->i_size) {
+ /* consider adding check to see if src oplocked */
+ len = inode->i_size - src_off;
+ cifs_dbg(FYI, "adjust copychunk len %lld less\n", len);
+ }

This makes us return rc == 0 when this triggers. Is that what we want?
Looking at "man copy_file_range" suggests we should return -EINVAL in
both these cases.
