This is similar to generic_file_llseek() but allows the caller to
specify a cookie that will be updated to indicate that a seek happened.
Caller's requiring that information in their readdir implementations can
use that.

Subject: [PATCH 11/19] input: remove f_version abuse

f_version is removed from struct file. Make input stop abusing f_version
for stashing information for poll. Move the input state counter into
input_seq_state and allocate it via seq_private_open() and free via
seq_release_private().

Only regular files with FMODE_ATOMIC_POS and directories need
f_pos_lock. Place a new f_pipe member in a union with f_pos_lock
that they can use and make them stop abusing f_version in follow-up
patches.

Subject: [PATCH 18/19] pipe: use f_pipe

Pipes use f_version to defer poll notifications until a write has been
observed. Since multiple file's refer to the same struct pipe_inode_info
in their ->private_data moving it into their isn't feasible since we
would need to introduce an additional pointer indirection.

However, since pipes don't require f_pos_lock we placed a new f_pipe
member into a union with f_pos_lock that pipes can use. This is similar
to what we already do for struct inode where we have additional fields
per file type. This will allow us to fully remove f_version in the next
step.
