[ 11/36] timer_list: correct the iterator for timer_list

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nathan Zimmer <nzimmer@xxxxxxx>

commit 84a78a6504f5c5394a8e558702e5b54131f01d14 upstream.

Correct an issue with /proc/timer_list reported by Holger.

When reading from the proc file with a sufficiently small buffer, 2k so
not really that small, there was one could get hung trying to read the
file a chunk at a time.

The timer_list_start function failed to account for the possibility that
the offset was adjusted outside the timer_list_next.
