Another possibility occurred to me: seeking back to the entry we're
about to remove, before removing it. Then, POSIX-compliant
implementations will just skip the removed entry and find the next one,
while RTEMS will find the next entry at the spot where the removed entry
used to be.
It is syscall-heavier, and it may invoke O(n^2) behavior for each
directory in remove_all, since prev_pos is quite likely to always hold
the initial offset, requiring scanning past more and more removed
entries after each removal, so I don't submit this formally for
inclusion, but post it FTR. I've only confirmed that it solves the
problem on RTEMS, passing libstdc++ filesystem test, but I haven't
tested it further.
