fs: factor out backing_file_mmap() helper Assert that the file object is allocated in a backing_file container so that file_user_path() could be used to display the user path and not the backing file's path in /proc/<pid>/maps. Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com>

fs: factor out backing_file_splice_{read,write}() helpers There is not much in those helpers, but it makes sense to have them logically next to the backing_file_{read,write}_iter() helpers as they may grow more common logic in the future. Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com>

fs: factor out backing_file_{read,write}_iter() helpers Overlayfs submits files io to backing files on other filesystems. Factor out some common helpers to perform io to backing files, into fs/backing-file.c.

fs: prepare for stackable filesystems backing file helpers In preparation for factoring out some backing file io helpers from overlayfs, move backing_file_open() into a new file fs/backing-file.c and header. Add a MAINTAINERS entry for stackable filesystems and add a Kconfig FS_STACK which stackable filesystems need to select. For now, the backing_file struct, the backing_file alloc/free functions and the backing_file_real_path() accessor remain internal to file_table.c. We may change that in the future.
