	Can that can be different from MAX_NON_LFS - pos?

Anyway, I would rather do this here:

	struct inode *inode = file->f_mapping->host;
	loff_t max_size = inode->i_sb->s_maxbytes;

	if (!(file->f_flags & O_LARGEFILE))
		max_size = MAX_NON_LFS;

	if (unlikely(pos >= max_size))
		return -EFBIG;
	*count = min(*count, max_size - pos);
	return 0;
