The error log hands out a record the way it did before, the record is consumed before it reaches userspace. A reader that passes a NULL buffer now loses a record like one that passed a bad buffer always did, instead of getting -EINVAL. The files can be spliced now, like every entry that is read through ->read_iter(). Note that a sendfile() from the error log into a target that fails or takes less than was read drops the records in between, splice_direct_to_actor() rewinds any seekable file like that and the error log doesn't hand a record out twice.
