Convert ircomm /proc interface to seq_file.

Note: don't need spin_lock_irq because list is not ever locked
from inside interrupt context.
	I don't agree with this change.
I'll let you guys work this one out.  Let me know when a
final version of the patch is ready.
	Oh, that's fairly simple. You just need to revert the
spin_lock() to a spin_lock_irqsave().
	By the way, I would prefer Stephen to not rock the boat when
it come to locking, I know that the locking of the IrDA stack is still
"fragile" in areas.
	Have fun...
