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.
