Thomas Veerman 3de8d1cf6e VFS/PFS: remove notion of position in pipes ...

Because pipes have no file position. VFS maintained (file) offsets into a
buffer internal to PFS and stored them in vnodes for simplicity, mixing
the responsibilities of filp and vnode objects.

With this patch PFS ignores the position field in REQ_READ and REQ_WRITE
requests making VFS' job a lot simpler.
