ring-buffer: Check for end of page in iterator
If the iterator comes to an empty page for some reason, or if
the page is emptied by a consuming read. The iterator code currently
does not check if the iterator is pass the contents, and may
return a false entry.
This patch adds a check to the ring buffer iterator to test if the
current page has been completely read and sets the iterator to the
next page if necessary.
