> While reading in more than one block (50) of KVP records, the allocation
> goes per block, but the reads used the total number of allocated records
> (without resetting the pointer/stream). This causes the records buffer to
> overrun when the refresh reads more than one block over the previous
> capacity (e.g. reading more than 100 KVP records whereas the in-memory
> database was empty before).
> 
> Fix this by reading the correct number of KVP records from file each time.
> 
> Changes since v1:
> 1. Properly wrapped comment texts.
> 2. Added the 2nd Signed-off-by.
