V4L/DVB (7580): Fix concurrent read from /proc/videocodecs
Observation one: ->write_proc and ->data assignments aren't needed. Removed. Observation two: codecs lists are unprotected. Patch doesn't fix this. Observation three: /proc/videocodecs printout is done to temporary _global_ buffer which is freed in between. Consequently, two users hitting this file can screwup each other. Steps to reproduce: modprobe videocodec while true; do cat /proc/videocodecs &>/dev/null; done & while true; do cat /proc/videocodecs &>/dev/null; done & The fix is switching to seq_files, this removes code, especially some line-length "logic".
