Subject: seq_file: introduce seq_setwidth() and seq_pad()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=839cc2a94cc3665bafe32203c2f095f4dd470a80;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

seq_file: introduce seq_setwidth() and seq_pad()

There are several users who want to know bytes written by seq_*() for
alignment purpose.  Currently they are using %n format for knowing it
because seq_*() returns 0 on success.

This patch introduces seq_setwidth() and seq_pad() for allowing them to
align without using %n format.
