Patch series "seq_file: Introduce DEFINE_SEQ_ATTRIBUTE() helper macro".

As discussed in
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191129222310.GA3712618@kroah.com/, we could
introduce a new helper macro to reduce losts of boilerplate code, vmstat
and kprobes is the example which covert to use it, if this is accepted, I
will send out more cleanups.

This patch (of 3):

Introduce DEFINE_SEQ_ATTRIBUTE() helper macro to decrease code duplication.
