[PATCH] compat getdents64: Use correct offset for retry [BZ #23972]


d_off is the offset of the *next* entry, not the offset of the current
entry.

2018-12-10  Florian Weimer  <fweimer@redhat.com>

	[BZ #23972]
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/getdents64.c (handle_overflow): Check
	offset instead of count for clarity.  Fix typo in comment.
	(__old_getdents64): Keep track of previous offset.  Use it to call
	handle_overflow.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tst-readdir64-compat.c (do_test): Check
	that d_off is never zero.
