Subject[for-next][PATCH 6/6] seq_buf: fix a misleading comment
From: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

The comment for seq_buf_has_overflowed() says that an overflow condition is
marked by len == size, but that's not what the code is testing. Make the
comment match reality.

Fixes: 8cd709ae7658a ("tracing: Have seq_buf use full buffer")
