[PATCH] s390: uv: Fix loop condition in uv_find_secrets

From: Steffen Eiden

Date: Tue Aug 11 2026 - 04:48:12 EST


Nothing modified `start_idx` between the assignment and the comparison,
so the condition was always false and the do/while ran exactly once
even when the UV returned UVC_RC_MORE_DATA. Systems with more than
85 UV secrets got -ENOENT for any secret past the first page.

Fix this by setting the start index at the beginning of the loop not at
the end. First test if there are more secrets left by comparing
start_idx with list->next_secret_idx, and then set the start index to the
next secret index.
