Elazar Leibovich cbe08bcbbe tracing: Fix partial reading of trace event's id file
When reading only part of the id file, the ppos isn't tracked correctly.
This is taken care by simple_read_from_buffer.

Reading a single byte, and then the next byte would result EOF.

While this seems like not a big deal, this breaks abstractions that
reads information from files unbuffered. See for example
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/29399

This code was mentioned as problematic in
commit cd458ba9d5
("tracing: Do not (ab)use trace_seq in event_id_read()")

An example C code that show this bug is:

  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <stdint.h>

  #include <sys/types.h>
  #include <sys/stat.h>
  #include <fcntl.h>
  #include <unistd.h>

  int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    if (argc < 2)
      return 1;
    int fd = open(argv[1], O_RDONLY);
    char c;
    read(fd, &c, 1);
    printf("First  %c\n", c);
    read(fd, &c, 1);
    printf("Second %c\n", c);
  }

Then run with, e.g.

  sudo ./a.out /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tcp/tcp_set_state/id

You'll notice you're getting the first character twice, instead of the
first two characters in the id file.
