Impact: dont leave holes in read buffer page The ring_buffer_read_page swaps a given page with the reader page of the ring buffer, if certain conditions are set: 1) requested length is big enough to hold entire page data 2) a writer is not currently on the page 3) the page is not partially consumed. Instead of swapping with the supplied page. It copies the data to the supplied page instead. But currently the data is copied in the same offset as the source page. This causes a hole at the start of the reader page. This complicates the use of this function. Instead, it should copy the data at the beginning of the function and update the index fields accordingly. Other small clean ups are also done in this patch.
