Subject: tracing: Update *ppos instead of filp->f_pos
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.32-rc6~17^2~3
X-Git-Url: https://git.kernel.dk/?p=linux-2.6-block.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=cf8517cf905b5cd31d5790250b9ac39f7cb8aa53

tracing: Update *ppos instead of filp->f_pos

Instead of directly updating filp->f_pos we should update the *ppos
argument. The filp->f_pos gets updated within the file_pos_write()
function called from sys_write().
