This patch brings ability to print out auxiliary data associated
with file in procfs interface /proc/pid/fdinfo/fd.

In particular further patches make eventfd, evenpoll, signalfd
and fsnotify to print additional information complete enough
to restore these objects after checkpoint.

To simplify the code we add show_fdinfo callback inside
struct file_operations (as Al and Pavel are proposing).
