Summary:                    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.
