Yeah, I thought about it. This seems to be a way more simplier.
I think i'll switch to this.

Well, I thought about it as two sequences -- first is procfs
seq-file, which prints out a general header, and second
is extra fdinfo provider.

Everything starts with printing procfs header

seq_start -> seq_show (prints "pos:\t%lli\nflags:\t0%o\n") ->
seq_next -> (if have extra driver we do extra's start/show at first,
then next and etc). In other words general header should be
shown always even if extra's start() fails.

Cyrill
