We have two printk tests reading trace_pipe in non blocking way, with the very same code. Moving that in new read_trace_pipe_iter function. Current read_trace_pipe is used from samples/bpf and needs to do blocking read and printf of the trace_pipe data, using new read_trace_pipe_iter to implement that. Both printk tests do early checks for the number of found messages and can bail earlier, but I did not find any speed difference w/o that condition, so I did not complicate the change more for that. Some of the samples/bpf programs use read_trace_pipe function, so I kept that interface untouched. I did not see any issues with affected samples/bpf programs other than there's slight change in read_trace_pipe output. The current code uses puts that adds new line after the printed string, so we would occasionally see extra new line. With this patch we read output per lines, so there's no need to use puts and we can use just printf instead without extra new line.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
