Since upstream commit 97a32539b956 ("proc: convert everything to "struct
proc_ops"") the drivers ate not using struct file_operations for proc
files any more, but the new struct proc_ops. This replaces the new names
with the old ones to make the driver still work on older kernel
versions.
The kernel commit also removed the .owner attribute which is not added
by this change again.
