fs: prevent page refcount overflow in pipe_buf_get
commit 15fab63e1e57be9fdb5eec1bbc5916e9825e9acb upstream.
Change pipe_buf_get() to return a bool indicating whether it succeeded
in raising the refcount of the page (if the thing in the pipe is a page).
This removes another mechanism for overflowing the page refcount. All
callers converted to handle a failure.
