[RFC PATCH 1/1] mm/slub: fix endless "No data" printing for alloc/free_traces attribute

[Gerald Schaefer <gerald.schaefer@linux.ibm.com>]

Reading from alloc/free_traces attribute in /sys/kernel/debug/slab/ results
in an endless sequence of "No data". This is because slab_debugfs_start()
does not check for a "past end of file" condition and return NULL.

Fix it by adding such a check and return NULL.

Fixes: 64dd68497be7 ("mm: slub: move sysfs slab alloc/free interfaces to debugfs")
