Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 01/28] cgroup-v1: cgroup_pidlist_next should update position index

From: Vasily Averin <vvs@...tuozzo.com>

[ Upstream commit db8dd9697238be70a6b4f9d0284cd89f59c0e070 ]

if seq_file .next fuction does not change position index,
read after some lseek can generate unexpected output.

 # mount | grep cgroup
 # dd if=/mnt/cgroup.procs bs=1  # normal output
