[PATCH v5 0/3] Add helper macro DEFINE_SHOW_STORE_ATTRIBUTE at seq_file.c

From: Xingui Yang

We already own DEFINE_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE() helper macro for defining attribute
for read-only file, but we found many of drivers also want a helper macro
for read-write file too.

So we add this helper macro to reduce duplicate code.

Changes from v4:
- Reduce the scope to scsi subsystem based on Andy's suggestion.
- Remove unused macros in qla_dfs.c
- Adjust some descriptions in commit.

Changes from v3:
- Add AI Viro's comment to v1->v2's revision description.
- Fixed a spelling mistakes of "marco" to "macro".

Changes from v2:
- Fixed some spelling mistakes in commit.
- Revision description are added for easy tracing.

Changes from v1:
- Rename DEFINE_STORE_ATTRIBUTE() to DEFINE_SHOW_STORE_ATTRIBUTE().
- AI Viro points out that he doesn't like the definition of macros
like DEFINE_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE.

seq_file: Add helper macro to define attribute for rw file
scsi: hisi_sas: Use DEFINE_SHOW_STORE_ATTRIBUTE helper for debugfs
scsi: qla2xxx: Use DEFINE_SHOW_STORE_ATTRIBUTE helper for debugfs
