kfifo: add kfifo_skip, kfifo_from_user and kfifo_to_user
Add kfifo_reset_out() for save lockless discard the fifo output Add kfifo_skip() to skip a number of output bytes Add kfifo_from_user() to copy user space data into the fifo Add kfifo_to_user() to copy fifo data to user space Signed-off-by: Stefani Seibold <stefani@seibold.net> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> Acked-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com> Acked-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
