    ring-buffer: Rename ring_buffer_read() to read_buffer_iter_advance() · bc1a72af
    Steven Rostedt (VMware) authored
    When the ring buffer was first created, the iterator followed the normal
    producer/consumer operations where it had both a peek() operation, that just
    returned the event at the current location, and a read(), that would return
    the event at the current location and also increment the iterator such that
    the next peek() or read() will return the next event.
    
    The only use of the ring_buffer_read() is currently to move the iterator to
    the next location and nothing now actually reads the event it returns.
    Rename this function to its actual use case to ring_buffer_iter_advance(),
    which also adds the "iter" part to the name, which is more meaningful. As
    the timestamp returned by ring_buffer_read() was never used, there's no
    reason that this new version should bother having returning it. It will also
    become a void function.
