Right.  Well you're no fun...

These uses would seem broken anyway because the
seq_printf isn't itself tested for correctness.

Hmm.

Also, there's a large amount of code that appears
to do calculations with pos or len like:

        pos += seq_printf(handle, fmt. ...)

There are very few that seem to use it correctly
like netfilter.

$ grep -rP --include=*.[ch] "^[ \t]*\S[ \t\S]*\bseq_[v]?printf\b" *

Suggestions?
