Subject: [PATCH v1 2/5] relayfs: introduce dump of relayfs statistics function

From: Jason Xing <kernelxing@...cent.com>

In this version, only support dumping the counter for buffer full and
implement the framework of how it works. Users MUST pass a valid @buf
with a valid @len that is required to be larger than RELAY_DUMP_BUF_MAX_LEN
to acquire which information indicated by @flags to dump.

RELAY_DUMP_BUF_MAX_LEN shows the maximum len of the buffer if users
choose to dump all the values.

Users can use this buffer to do whatever they expect in their own kernel
module, say, print to console/dmesg or write them into the relay buffer.
