Subject: fuse: fix READDIRPLUS skipping an entry

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>

commit c6cdd51404b7ac12dd95173ddfc548c59ecf037f upstream.

Marios Titas running a Haskell program noticed a problem with fuse's
readdirplus: when it is interrupted by a signal, it skips one directory
entry.

The reason is that fuse erronously updates ctx->pos after a failed
dir_emit().

The issue originates from the patch adding readdirplus support.
