bug#37856: 27.0.50; 'next-error' advised with 'recenter' signals error when run from "*grep*" buffer

[Stefan Kangas]

I get an error when advising 'next-error' with 'recenter'.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Under "emacs -Q", evaluate:
    (defun my-advice (&rest args)
      (recenter))
    (advice-add 'next-error :after #'my-advice)
2. M-x rgrep RET [... grep for something]
3. Run 'next-error' (M-g M-n) from the "*grep*" buffer.

Result: I get the error:
    recenter-top-bottom: ‘recenter’ing a window that does not display
current-buffer.

(I also get the error when I run it in the second window when
'next-error' would take you to a different file.)

Expected result: I get no error.

This seems to be due to this code in window.c:

  /* For reasons why we signal an error here, see
     https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2014-06/msg00053.html,
     https://lists.gnu.org/r/emacs-devel/2014-06/msg00094.html.  */
  if (buf != current_buffer)
    error ("`recenter'ing a window that does not display current-buffer.");

This code was added here:
3da983f8c4 2014-06-06 Stefan Monnier * src/window.c (Frecenter):
Signal an error if window-buffer is not current-buffer.
