Looks fine, thanks!

Steve, Roland:

Would you mind adding an appropriate .llseek method to your file operations
so I can drop the change from my tree?

The default_llseek function is used because the read function can currently
be seeked, but I do not know whether that is intentional. If you don't want
to seek, just make open() call nonseekable_open() and set .llseek to no_llseek.
