When building for arm, cpuinfo_op generates a warning due
to no declaration. Since this is used in fs/proc/cpuinfo.c
and inconsitently declared across archiectures move the
declaration info <linux/seq_file.h>. This means that the
cpuinfo_op will have a declaration any place it is used.

Removes the following sparse warning:

arch/arm/kernel/setup.c:1320:29: warning: symbol 'cpuinfo_op' was not declared. Should it be static?

I like the consolidation, but I don't think seq_file.h is the right
place.  A procfs or cpu topology related header seems like the better
choice.

Ok, thanks.

I'll have a look at where else it could go, but I'm not sure if I have
the resources to build /all/ kernels that this would effect.
