[PATCH RESEND] kernel/relay.c: fix read_pos error when multiple readers

From: Pengcheng Yang
Date: Wed Jan 22 2020 - 06:06:33 EST


When reading, read_pos should start with bytes_consumed,
not file->f_pos. Because when there is more than one reader,
the read_pos corresponding to file->f_pos may have been consumed,
which will cause the data that has been consumed to be read
and the bytes_consumed update error.
