/run/live/medium is isofs?

I would expect this commit:

    loop: Add sanity check for read/write_iter
    
    [ Upstream commit f5c84eff634ba003326aa034c414e2a9dcb7c6a7 ]
    
    Some file systems do not support read_iter/write_iter, such as selinuxfs
    in this issue.
    So before calling them, first confirm that the interface is supported and
    then call it.
    
    It is releavant in that vfs_iter_read/write have the check, and removal
    of their used caused szybot to be able to hit this issue.
    
    Fixes: f2fed441c69b ("loop: stop using vfs_iter__{read,write} for buffered I/O")
