Indeed, don't change the output format, please.

These checks are not enough to actually handle the case, mmio_read()
needs to be updated, too, to do the right thing (I'm looking at Ingo's
tip/master). I.e. it should skip to print_out to flush out old data.
Shouldn't also *ppos be updated in mmio_read()?


Thanks for looking into this.
