[ Upstream commit 10a6de19cad6efb9b49883513afb810dc265fca2 ]
DEFINE_PROC_SHOW_ATTRIBUTE() is supposed to be used to define a series of functions and variables to register proc file easily. And the users can use proc_create_data() to pass their own private data and get it via seq->private in the callback. Unfortunately, the proc file system use PDE_DATA() to get private data instead of inode->i_private. So fix it. Fortunately, there only one user of it which does not pass any private data, so this bug does not break any in-tree codes.
