commit b011946d039d66bbc7102137e98cc67e1356aa87 upstream.
The commit a69755b18774 ("xtensa simdisk: switch to proc_create_data()") split read operation into two parts, first retrieving the path when it's non-null and second retrieving the trailing '\n'. However when the path is non-null the first simple_read_from_buffer updates ppos, and the second simple_read_from_buffer returns 0 if ppos is greater than 1 (i.e. almost always). As a result reading from that proc file is almost always empty.
Fix it by making a temporary copy of the path with the trailing '\n' and using simple_read_from_buffer on that copy.
