vfs: swap names of {do,vfs}_clone_file_range()
Commit 031a072a0b8a ("vfs: call vfs_clone_file_range() under freeze protection") created a wrapper do_clone_file_range() around vfs_clone_file_range() moving the freeze protection to former, so overlayfs could call the latter. The more common vfs practice is to call do_xxx helpers from vfs_xxx helpers, where freeze protecction is taken in the vfs_xxx helper, so this anomality could be a source of confusion. It seems that commit 8ede205541ff ("ovl: add reflink/copyfile/dedup support") may have fallen a victim to this confusion - ovl_clone_file_range() calls the vfs_clone_file_range() helper in the hope of getting freeze protection on upper fs, but in fact results in overlayfs allowing to bypass upper fs freeze protection. Swap the names of the two helpers to conform to common vfs practice and call the correct helpers from overlayfs and nfsd.
