Subject: VFS: fix interruption of blocking pipe operations
X-Git-Tag: v3.3.0~604

VFS: fix interruption of blocking pipe operations

POSIX states that when interrupted, partially successful pipe
operations should return the partial result rather than EINTR. VFS
previously wouldn't look at the partial result, and not clear it
either, which would result in a panic upon the next pipe operation.
