Summary

0000434: cat does not display data from a file

Description

Using 'cat' to display information from files like a '/proc/kmsg' or '/dev/isdninfo' does not work properly - it prints data in 8192 byte packages.
Problem is in the 'bb_full_fd_action' function it uses now 'bb_full_read' not a 'safe_read' functions. bb_full_read does not return until the end of file or 8192 bytes read.
