diff-ms-procchecks-20051230

Patch from mainstream:

Insanity avoidance in /proc

The old /proc interfaces were never updated to use loff_t, and are just generally broken. Now, we should be using the seq_file interface for all of the proc files, but converting the legacy functions is more work than most people care for and has little upside..

But at least we can make the non-LFS rules explicit, rather than just insanely wrapping the offset or something.
