Sort modules list - use ppos instead of m->private
When reading the data by small chunks (i.e. byte by byte), the index (ppos) is
incremented by seq_read() directly and no "next" callback is called when going
to the next module.
Therefore, use ppos instead of m->private to deal with the fact that this index
is incremented directly to pass to the next module in seq_read() after the
buffer has been emptied.
