PATCH [04/06]

This patch introduces the .next seq operation for /proc/pid/semundo.

What should be mentioned here is that the undo_list lock is released between
between each iteration.
Doing this, we only guarantee to access some valid data during the .show,
not to have a full coherent view of the whole list. But, oth, this reduces the
the performance impact on the access to the undo_list.
