From: "Daniel W. S. Almeida" <dwlsalmeida at gmail.com>

Fix the following warnings:

fs/seq_file.c:40: WARNING: Inline strong start-string without end-string.
fs/seq_file.c:40: WARNING: Inline strong start-string without end-string.
fs/seq_file.c:40: WARNING: Inline strong start-string without end-string.
fs/seq_file.c:40: WARNING: Inline strong start-string without end-string

By escaping the parenthesis in the affected line. Line breaks were added
for clarity.
