This allows the VFS layer to the update rather than the
low-level drivers. 

Use the proper "pointer to pos" that is passed down instead.

It's causing massive user confusion, and breaks installers by
mounting the filesystem read-only.

Although the current DVB stuff compiles fine, for correctness the following
patch adds the necessary include for __user annotations.

The old ones were not only hard to use, they were in fact
impossible or a low-level sound driver to get right, since
the core sound code didn't even export all the necessary
information.

Add the file offset to the /proc read interfaces, and make
them simpler to use. The core now does a offset updates, and
sanity-checks the values so that the low-level drivers don't
need to worry.

The SLB rewrite removed a fix for a hard to hit bug, but the SFS guys
managed to hit it straight away. We need to check both r1 and PACAKSAVE
or else we could cast our kernel segment out when on the irq or softirq
stack.

The block layer SG should have the identical behaviour as SCSI sg when
it comes to SG_SET_RESERVED_SIZE - allow caller to specify a large
amount, truncate to largest we support, and return that with
SG_GET_RESERVED_SIZE.  Currently we fail with -EINVAL if the value is
too large, I think the SCSI sg behaviour is more sane to use.  This
one-liner fixes it up, please apply for 2.6.8.

This fixes sparse warnings in fpa11_cpdt (coprocessor data transfer)
instruction emulation.  Note that pointers need to be cast to unsigned
long not unsigned int, so convert user registers to be unsigned long
type.

This cleans up and simplifies drivers, and also allows us future
simplification in the VFS layer, since it removes knowledge about
internal VFS layer handling of "f_pos".

Nobody ever fixed the big FIXME in sysctl - but we really need
to pass around the proper "loff_t *" to all the sysctl functions
if we want them to be well-behaved wrt the file pointer position.

This is all preparation for making direct f_pos accesses go
away.

 - conversion to seq_file, overflow fixes
 - qos_parse sanitized (3 sscanf calls instead of insane manual parsing)
	leaks plugged
	code cleaned up

We still have serious races, but they are general problem in atm code - it
has no locking whatsoever for any of the lists (mpcs, qos_head, per-client
lists).

Adds support for 'hh' (store number in char *) and 'll' (proper C99 for
long long) modifiers to sscanf().

no need for the mtrr code to check any more.

remove the run-time tests for it.

You can seek the tape, but you do it with the magic tape
control ioctl's, not with lseek/pread/pwrite.

unnecessary tests at read/write time.

Remove the test from the socket code, now that it's no
longer necessary.

file descriptors.

This also removes the ESPIPE logic from pipes and seq_files,
since the VFS layer now supports it.
