[PATCH][MINOR] define default SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR and SEEK_END

[Willem de Bruijn <wdebruij@dds.nl>]

this is a very minor patch to include the various llseek SEEK macro's into 
linux/fs.h

perhaps there's a reason this hasn't been included yet, but a simple grep 
showed me that I'm not the only one defining these in my drivers (which IMHO 
is bad). I simply copied these lines from libc's fnctl.h, including the 
original commentary. 

By the way, can someone tell me if I should cc: these minor patches to a 
specific maintainer?
