PATCH v2 1/1 cpuinfo_op: consolidate extern declaration

All the architectures supported by the kernel also support /proc/cpuinfo. Only a couple actually declare the seq_operations as extern. All the others will produce a sparse warning like:

warning: symbol 'cpuinfo_op' was not declared. Should it be static?

Fix all the warnings and consolidate the declaration by putting it in <linux/seq_file.h>.
