Yeah, I missed an offset update in there :) Here's a better version.

net: Fix frag_list handling in skb_seq_read

The frag_list handling was broken in skb_seq_read:

1) We didn't add the stepped offset when looking at the head
are of fragments other than the first.

2) We didn't take the stepped offset away when setting the data
pointer in the head area.

3) The frag index wasn't reset.

This patch fixes both issues.
