Alex Elder e97e1267e9 printk: tweak do_syslog() to match comments ... In do_syslog() there's a path used by kmsg_poll() and kmsg_read() that only needs to know whether there's any data available to read (and not its size). These callers only check for non-zero return. As a shortcut, do_syslog() returns the difference between what has been logged and what has been "seen." The comments say that the "count of records" should be returned but it's not. Instead it returns (log_next_idx - syslog_idx), which is a difference between buffer offsets--and the result could be negative. The behavior is the same (it'll be zero or not in the same cases), but the count of records is more meaningful and it matches what the comments say. So change the code to return that.
