Subject: [patch 1/2] vfs: seq_file: add helpers for data filling

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@...e.cz>

Add two helpers that allow access to the seq_file's own buffer, but
hides the internal details of seq_files.

This allows easier implementation of special purpose filling
functions.  It also cleans up some existing functions which duplicated
the seq_file logic.
