[ Upstream commit f5c84eff634ba003326aa034c414e2a9dcb7c6a7 ]
Some file systems do not support read_iter/write_iter, such as selinuxfs in this issue. So before calling them, first confirm that the interface is supported and then call it.
It is releavant in that vfs_iter_read/write have the check, and removal of their used caused szybot to be able to hit this issue.
