Hmm static? What about parallel reads from different files? I guess you'll have
to somehow employ the offset parameter here and it won't be pretty, because you
are still printing free text and not some fixed-size binary chunks where seeking
is simple.
Also it's wasteful to to repeat the data gathering for each pritned page, you'd
need a mechanism that allows holding private data between printing out the
pages. If bin_attribute doesn't have that, you'd need e.g. seq_file which we use
for /proc/pid/(s)maps etc.

This line doesn't exist since 90e9f6a66c78f in v5.6-rc1, is the patch based on
an old kernel?
