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.

[ 4.4.y backport notes:
Regarding the change in generic_pipe_buf_get(), note that
page_cache_get() is the same as get_page(). See mainline commit
09cbfeaf1a5a6 "mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and
page_cache_{get,release} macros" for context. ]
