From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> As the ei->entries array is fixed for the duration of the eventfs_inode, it can be used to skip over already read entries in eventfs_iterate(). That is, if ctx->pos is greater than zero, there's no reason in doing the loop across the ei->entries array for the entries less than ctx->pos. Instead, start the lookup of the entries at the current ctx->pos.
