Note, I've started with Joe's patches and I'm massaging them for something I can work with.

As I'm looking at this code, I'm thinking that we never really care about seq_is_full(). We only really care if seq_overflowed(), in which the contents will be discarded.
Rational? Because if we break when seq_is_full(), my new logic wont throw away the result. If we break out of the function when it's full and not when it has overflowed, then we may never print out the rest of the content, as the seq_file code will still use a full buffer that hasn't overflowed.
I'm thinking of switching everything to use seq_has_overflowed() and try again.
Thoughts?
