Thanks for looking at this and summarizing the changes.

There's been a previous thread here:

  <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2019-06/msg00039.html>

I can back out the emulation, as discussed, then there wouldn't be
anything left to test in theory (although I think our tests caught one
or two bugs in XFS backports downstream, that as before fstests covered
copy_file_range).

It's not easy for me to test linux-next, but I can try to tweak the test
so that it copes with the different error codes.

The cross-device test we should just drop.

Thanks,
Florian
