Subject: [PULL] stream_open bits for Linux 5.3

Linus,

Please consider pulling the following stream_open related bits:

This time on stream_open front it is only two small changes:

- the first one converts stream_open.cocci to treat all functions that
  start with wait_.* as blocking. Previously it was only wait_event_.*
  functions that were considered as blocking, but this was falsely
  reporting deadlock cases as only warning. The patch was picked by
  linux-kbuild and already entered your tree as 0c4ab18fc33b.
  It is thus omitted from hereby pull-request.

- the second one teaches stream_open.cocci to consider files as being
  stream-like even if they use noop_llseek. I posted this patch for
  review 3 weeks ago[1], but got neither feedback nor complaints.

The changes are available for pulling from here:

Thanks beforehand,
Kirill
