Documentation/filesystems/seq_file.txt: create_proc_entry deprecated

Linked article in seq_file.txt still uses create_proc_entry which was
removed in commit 80e928f7ebb9 ("proc: Kill create_proc_entry()").

This patch adds information for kernel 3.10 and above

+Deprecated create_proc_entry
+
+Note that the above article uses create_proc_entry which was removed in
+kernel 3.10. Current versions require the following update
+
+-	entry = create_proc_entry("sequence", 0, NULL);
+-	if (entry)
+-		entry->proc_fops = &ct_file_ops;
++	entry = proc_create("sequence", 0, NULL, &ct_file_ops);
