[PATCH 12/12] user_ns: seq_file: use the user_ns that is embedded in the f_cred struct

[Djalal Harouni]

seq_file struct now has a reference on the file->f_cred struct which
includes a pointer on user_ns. So remove the user_ns field from seq_file
struct and use the one provided by seq_file->f_cred.

Update seq_user_ns() to return the user_ns of seq_file->f_cred.
