Summary: new logread option: -n (like tail)
Description:
This patch adds an option to logread to only display the latest certain #
of lines. This is very useful since there is no logfile to run tail on
and the entire ring buffer must be copied for tail to work. On my system
(10MB logfile, 128MB memory) this really isn't practical.
This is tested on i386 with linux 2.6.
