iwlwifi: fix debugfs buffer handling
We keep track of where to write into a buffer by keeping a count of how
much has been written so far. When writing to the buffer we thus take the
buffer pointer and adding the count of what has been written so far.
Keeping track of what has been written so far is done by incrementing
this number every time something is written to the buffer with how much has
been written at that time.
Currently this number is incremented incorrectly when using the
"hex_dump_to_buffer" call to add data to the buffer. Fix this by only
adding what has been added to the buffer in that call instead of what has
been added since beginning of buffer.
Issue was discovered and discussed during testing of
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=464598 .
