seq_file: document how per-entry resources are managed.
Patch series "Fix some seq_file users that were recently broken".
A recent change to seq_file broke some users which were using seq_file
in a non-"standard" way ... though the "standard" isn't documented, so
they can be excused. The result is a possible leak - of memory in one
case, of references to a 'transport' in the other.
These three patches:
1/ document and explain the problem
2/ fix the problem user in x86
3/ fix the problem user in net/sctp
This patch (of 3):
Users of seq_file will sometimes find it convenient to take a resource,
such as a lock or memory allocation, in the ->start or ->next operations.
These are per-entry resources, distinct from per-session resources which
are taken in ->start and released in ->stop.
The preferred management of these is release the resource on the
subsequent call to ->next or ->stop.
However prior to Commit 1f4aace60b0e ("fs/seq_file.c: simplify seq_file
iteration code and interface") it happened that ->show would always be
called after ->start or ->next, and a few users chose to release the
resource in ->show.
This is no longer reliable. Since the mentioned commit, ->next will
always come after a successful ->show (to ensure m->index is updated
correctly), so the original ordering cannot be maintained.
This patch updates the documentation to clearly state the required
behaviour. Other patches will fix the few problematic users.

doc: seq_file: clarify role of *pos in ->next()
There are behavioural requirements on the seq_file next() function in
terms of how it updates *pos at end-of-file, and these are now enforced
by a warning.
I was recently attempting to justify the reason this was needed, and
couldn't remember the details, and didn't find them in the
documentation.
So I re-read the code until I understood it again, and updated the
documentation to match.
I also enhanced the text about SEQ_START_TOKEN as it seemed potentially
misleading.
