This is similar to https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=211209

After an upgrade from 5.9 to 5.10 the cgit repository viewer no longer works because it uses sendfile() with the output going to a pipe.

I looked at where notifications are going for this bug and I think you're better of sending a description of your findings to linux-fsdevel@vger.kernel.org. It's most certainly going to get more attention this way -- especially if you provide all the info you've gathered to this point.

This seems to be already addressed in 5.10.11
