insert_1 can be called with the arg PREPARE zero, but as
insert_from_buffer and insert_from_buffer_1 don't have such
an arg, prepare_to_modify_buffer is called unconditionally,
which leads to the call of
ask-user-about-supersession-threat, which makes
global-auto-revert-mode don't work.

I've fixed that by binding buffer-file-name to nil
temporarily.
