Smack: fix seq operations in smackfs
Use proper RCU functions and read locking in smackfs seq_operations.
Smack gets away with not using proper RCU functions in smackfs, because
it never removes entries from these lists. But now one list will be
needed (with interface in smackfs) that will have both elements added and
removed to it.
This change will also help any future changes implementing removal of
unneeded entries from other Smack lists.
The patch also fixes handling of pos argument in smk_seq_start and
smk_seq_next. This fixes a bug in case when smackfs is read with a small
buffer:
