22  *	by @op.  @op->start() sets the iterator up and returns the first
23  *	element of sequence. @op->stop() shuts it down.  @op->next()
24  *	returns the next element of sequence.  @op->show() prints element
25  *	into the buffer.  In case of error ->start() and ->next() return
26  *	ERR_PTR(error).  In the end of sequence they return %NULL. ->show()
27  *	returns 0 in case of success and negative number in case of error.
28  *	Returning SEQ_SKIP means "discard this element and move on".
