[PATCH 5.6 021/167] kernel/gcov/fs.c: gcov_seq_next() should increase position index

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Apr 28 2020 - 14:26:37 EST


From: Vasily Averin <vvs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit f4d74ef6220c1eda0875da30457bef5c7111ab06 ]

If seq_file .next function does not change position index, read after
some lseek can generate unexpected output.
