David Carlier af05b4e062 ring-buffer: Fix ring_buffer_read_page() copying only one event per page
Commit 8928e4a3be ("ring-buffer: Show persistent buffer dropped events
in trace_pipe file") split the "commit" variable in
ring_buffer_read_page() into "commit" (raw) and "size" (masked page
size), but the inner copy loop's terminator was changed to compare rpos
against "event_size" instead of "size".

rpos is the cumulative read offset within the page; event_size is the
length of the single event just copied. The loop thus breaks after the
first event, so only one event is copied per call. This regresses the
per-event memcpy path (partial reads, the active commit page, and
mapped/remote buffers) used by splice/trace_pipe_raw and mmap consumers
into a one-event-at-a-time read.

Compare rpos against the page size as the original code did.
