Commit 4fc427e05158 ("ipv6_route_seq_next should increase position index")
tried to fix the issue where seq_file pos is not increased
if a NULL element is returned with seq_ops->next(). See bug
  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206283
The commit effectively does:
  - increase pos for all seq_ops->start()
  - increase pos for all seq_ops->next()

For ipv6_route, increasing pos for all seq_ops->next() is correct.
But increasing pos for seq_ops->start() is not correct
since pos is used to determine how many items to skip during
seq_ops->start():
  iter->skip = *pos;
seq_ops->start() just fetches the *current* pos item.
The item can be skipped only after seq_ops->show() which essentially
is the beginning of seq_ops->next().

For example, I have 7 ipv6 route entries,

  root@arch-fb-vm1:~/net-next

In the above, I specify buffer size 4096, so all records can be returned
to user space with a single trip to the kernel.

If I use buffer size 128, since each record size is 149, internally
kernel seq_read() will read 149 into its internal buffer and return the data
to user space in two read() syscalls. Then user read() syscall will trigger
next seq_ops->start(). Since the current implementation increased pos even
for seq_ops->start(), it will skip record #2, #4 and #6, assuming the first
record is #1.

  root@arch-fb-vm1:~/net-next dd if=/proc/net/ipv6_route bs=128

To fix the problem, create a fake pos pointer so seq_ops->start()
won't actually increase seq_file pos. With this fix, the
above `dd` command with `bs=128` will show correct result.

Changelog:
 v2 -> v3:
  - initialize local variable "p" to avoid potential syzbot complaint. (Eric)
 v1 -> v2:
  - instead of push increment of *pos in ipv6_route_seq_next() for
    seq_ops->next() only. Add a face pos pointer in seq_ops->start()
    and use it when calling ipv6_route_seq_next().
