[PATCH] Get core dump code to work...
The file based core dump code was broken by pipe changes - a relative
llseek returns the absolute file position on success, not the relative
one, so dump_seek() always failed when invoked with non-zero current
position.
Only success/failure can be tested with relative lseek, we have to trust
kernel that on success we've got right file offset. With this fix in
place I have finally real core files instead of 1KB fragments...

[ Cleaned it up a bit while here - use SEEK_CUR instead of hardcoding 1 ]
