tracing: disable seeking for trace_pipe_raw
Impact: disable pread() We set tracing_buffers_fops.llseek to no_llseek, but we can still perform pread() to read this file. That is not expected. This fix uses nonseekable_open() to disable it. tracing_buffers_fops.llseek is still set to no_llseek, it mark this file is a "non-seekable device" and is used by sys_splice(). See also do_splice() or manual of splice(2): ERRORS EINVAL Target file system doesn't support splicing; neither of the descriptors refers to a pipe; or offset given for non-seekable device.
