The <linux/firewire-cdev.h> character device file ABI (i.e. /dev/fw*
character device file interface) does not make any use of lseek(),
pread(), pwrite() (or any kind of write() at all).

Use nonseekable_open() and, redundantly, set file_operations.llseek to
no_llseek to remove any doubt whether the BKL-grabbing default_llseek
handler is used.  (Also shuffle file_operations initialization according
to the order of handler definitions.)
