Support was already implemented, but not hooked up. This fixes several
fails in the test cases.

Isn't (offset + len > file_len) an error? It seems find to "read to EOF" 
if the caller specified len==0, but if they specified a specific len, 
then isn't it an error if len+offset exceeds the length of the file?

On the other hand, if this is how other filesystems work in U-Boot, it's 
fine. I suppose this is consistent with how POSIX read() works.

Don't you need to update all callers of this function in this patch so 
the build doesn't break?

It matches behaviour of POSIX read() and u-boot's FAT implementation, and 
there is also the actread parameter the caller could/should check.

Missed the calls from spl_ext.c, will send v2.

Kind regards,
