This patch brings ability to print out auxiliary data associated with file in procfs interface /proc/pid/fdinfo/fd. In particular further patches make eventfd, evenpoll, signalfd and fsnotify to print additional information complete enough to restore these objects after checkpoint. To simplify the code we add show_fdinfo callback inside struct file_operations (as Al and Pavel are proposing).
