Fix potential concurrent access problems with VFS (#108)
Since Linux v3.14, the read, write and seek operations of "struct file" are
guaranteed for thread safety [1][2]. This patch added an explanation.

Here are the potential problems:
chardev.c:
- Move the "msg_ptr" pointer into the read function to remove unnecessary usage.
- List the clear states of "already_open" by using mnemonic enumeration.

chardev2.c:
- The "buffer" in the write function is user space data. It cannot use in the
  kernel space.
- Reduce the redundant type transformation.
- List the states of "already_open". Same as chardev.c.
