[PATCH] coredump: fix dumping through pipes
From: Mateusz Guzik
Date: Sun Jun 05 2016 - 08:20:51 EST
The offset in the core file used to be tracked with ->written field of
the coredump_params structure. Commit a0083939510 ("get rid of
coredump_params->written") replaced all its uses with file->f_pos.
However, ->f_pos is not maintained for pipes which leads to breakage.
Restore explicit tracking of the offset in coredump_params. Introduce
->pos field for this purpose since ->written was already reused.
