PATCH 1/1 ipc/shm: Add missing container_of() for randstruct

When building with the randstruct gcc plugin, the layout of the shm struct will be randomized, which requires any sub-structure accesses to use container_of(). One was still missing in the proc display handler, which would lead to crashes when running the "lsipc" program after the system had shm registers (e.g. after starting up Gnome):

Hi Andrew, please take this as a fix for v4.13.
