[PATCH] add seq_set_overflow(), seq_overflow()

[KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki]

It's undocumented but seq file's overflow state is checked by
m->count == m->size. This patch adds seq_set_overflow() and
seq_overflow() to set/check overflow status explicitly.

Based on an idea from Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@xxxxxxxxx>
