Subject: [PATCH 1/6] procfs: Kill BKL in llseek on proc base

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de>

We don't use the BKL elsewhere, so use generic_file_llseek
so we can avoid default_llseek taking the BKL.

Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de>
[restore proc_fdinfo_file_operations as non-seekable]
