 * As kernfs_seq_stop() is also called after kernfs_seq_start() or
 * kernfs_seq_next() failure, it needs to distinguish whether it's stopping
 * a seq_file iteration which is fully initialized with an active reference
 * or an aborted kernfs_seq_start() due to get_active failure.  The
 * position pointer is the only context for each seq_file iteration and
 * thus the stop condition should be encoded in it.  As the return value is
 * directly visible to userland, ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) is the only acceptable
 * choice to indicate get_active failure.
 *
 * Unfortunately, this is complicated due to the optional custom seq_file
 * operations which may return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) too.  kernfs_seq_stop()
 * can't distinguish whether ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) is from get_active failure or
 * custom seq_file operations and thus can't decide whether put_active
 * should be performed or not only on ERR_PTR(-ENODEV).
 *
 * This is worked around by factoring out the custom seq_stop() and
 * put_active part into kernfs_seq_stop_active(), skipping it from
 * kernfs_seq_stop() if ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) while invoking it directly after
 * custom seq_file operations fail with ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) - this ensures
 * that kernfs_seq_stop_active() is skipped only after get_active failure.
