Aleksa Sarai b8f70f9479 fscontext: do not consume log entries when returning -EMSGSIZE 
commit 72d271a7ba upstream.

Userspace generally expects APIs that return -EMSGSIZE to allow for them
to adjust their buffer size and retry the operation. However, the
fscontext log would previously clear the message even in the -EMSGSIZE
case.

Given that it is very cheap for us to check whether the buffer is too
small before we remove the message from the ring buffer, let's just do
that instead. While we're at it, refactor some fscontext_read() into a
separate helper to make the ring buffer logic a bit easier to read.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
