Sorry for my ultra-slow response to this.  The u64 length seems ok to me
(or uint64_t, I don't care all /that/ much), but using loff_t as a
return type bothers me because I see that and think that this function
is returning a new file offset, e.g. (pos + number of bytes zeroed).

So please, let's use s64 or something that isn't so misleading.

FWIW, Linus also[0] doesn't[1] like using loff_t for the number of bytes
copied.
