iio: industrialio-core: Fix debugfs read
Currently iio_debugfs_read_reg calls debugfs_reg_access every time it is ran. Reading the same hardware register multiple times during the same reading of a debugfs file can cause unintended effects. For example for each: cat iio:device0/direct_reg_access the file_operations.read function will be called at least twice. First will return the full length of the string in bytes and the second will return 0. This patch makes iio_debugfs_read_reg to call debugfs_reg_access only when the user's buffer position (*ppos) is 0. (meaning it is the beginning of a new reading of the debugfs file). Fixes: e553f182d55b ("staging: iio: core: Introduce debugfs support, add support for direct register access") Signed-off-by: Alexandru Ardelean <alexandru.ardelean@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Alexandru Tachici <alexandru.tachici@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@huawei.com>
