Subject: [PATCH v3] fs/proc/base.c: fix incorrect fmode_t casts

Fixes sparce warnings:
fs/proc/base.c:2240:25: sparse: warning: cast to restricted fmode_t
fs/proc/base.c:2297:42: sparse: warning: cast from restricted fmode_t
fs/proc/base.c:2394:48: sparse: warning: cast from restricted fmode_t

fmode_t is birwie type and requires __force attribute for any cast
