ring_buffer: fix typing mistake
Impact: Fix bug
I found several very very curious line.
It's so curious that it may be brought by typing mistake.
When (cpu_buffer->reader_page == cpu_buffer->commit_page):
1) We haven't copied it for bpage is changed:
bpage = cpu_buffer->reader_page->page;
memcpy(bpage->data, cpu_buffer->reader_page->page->data + read ... )
2) We need update cpu_buffer->reader_page->read, but
"cpu_buffer->reader_page += read;" is not right.
[
This bug was a typo. The commit->reader_page is a page pointer
and not an index into the page. The line should have been
commit->reader_page->read += read. The other changes
by Lai are nice clean ups to the code. - SDR
