Ah, I understand the problem and it is not related to drivers but 
misunderstanding what lseek does. lseek changes _virtual_ pointer, not 
physical. That's driver task to change physical pointer accordingly on the 
next I/O operation. That's driver task to do it relative or absolute, per 
what device can.
