If the output actor doesn't transfer the full amount of data, we will
increment ppos too much. Two related bugs in there:

- We need to break out and return actor() retval if it is shorted than
  what we spliced into the pipe.

- Adjust ppos only according to actor() return.

Also fix loop problem in generic_file_splice_read(), it should not keep
going when data has already been transferred.
