[ Upstream commit 33f801366b ]
Currently there is race condition between set of byte_pos and wrap
it around when new buffer starts. If .pointer is called in-between
it will result in inconsistent pointer position be returned
from .pointer callback.
This patch increments buffer pointer atomically to avoid this issue.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
