[PATCH] seq_file.h: introduce DECLARE_SEQ_FOPS_{RO,RW}

[H Hartley Sweeten <hartleys@visionengravers.com>]

Many of the procfs and debugfs attribute file_operations in the kernel are
missing the .owner information. Introduce some macro's to fill in the .owner
field as well as the common methods for virtual file file_operations.  This
simplifies creating the attributes and makes sure all the fields are properly
initialized.
