vfs_llseek will check whether the file mode has
FMODE_LSEEK, no return failure. But ashmem can be
lseek, so add FMODE_LSEEK to ashmem file.

This commit message is missing some important context.

ashmem_llseek() passes the llseek() call through to the backing shmem file. 91360b02ab48 ("ashmem: use vfs_llseek()") changed this from directly calling the file's llseek() op into a VFS layer call. This also adds a check for the FMODE_LSEEK bit, so without that bit ashmem_llseek() now always fails with -ESPIPE.

I've tested that this patch fixes the regression on both hikey running AOSP and User Mode Linux running Debian.
