The current approach to filling tmpbuffer with completion candidates is
confusing, with the buffer management being especially hard to reason
about. That's because it doesn't copy the completion canidate into
tmpbuffer, instead of copies a whole bunch of other nonsense and then
runs the completion search from the middle of tmpbuffer!
Change this to copy nothing but the completion candidate into tmpbuffer.
Pretty much everything else in this patch is renaming to reflect the
above change:
s/p_tmp/tmpbuffer/
s/buf_size/sizeof(tmpbuffer)/

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
