seq_file: always update file->f_pos in seq_lseek()
This issue was first pointed out by Jiaxing Wang several months ago, but no
further comments:

As we know pread() does not change f_pos, so after pread(), file->f_pos
and m->read_pos become different. And seq_lseek() does not update file->f_pos
if offset equals to m->read_pos, so after pread() and seq_lseek()(lseek to
m->read_pos), then a subsequent read may read from a wrong position, the
following program produces the problem:
char str1[32] = { 0 };
char str2[32] = { 0 };
int poffset = 10;
int count = 20;
/*open any seq file*/
int fd = open("/proc/modules", O_RDONLY);
