Make calculation of the size of the inline name in struct proc_dir_entry
automatic, rather than having to manually encode the numbers and failing to
allow for lockdep.

Require a minimum inline name size of 33+1 to allow for names that look
like two hex numbers with a dash between.

First of all, calling pid_revalidate() in the end of &lt;pid&gt;/* lookups
is *not* about closing any kind of races; that used to be true once
upon a time, but these days those comments are actively misleading.
Especially since pid_revalidate() doesn't even do d_drop() on
failure anymore.  It doesn't matter, anyway, since once
pid_revalidate() starts returning false, -&gt;d_delete() of those
dentries starts saying "don't keep"; they won't get stuck in
dcache any longer than they are pinned.

These calls cannot be just removed, though - the side effect of
pid_revalidate() (updating i_uid/i_gid/etc.) is what we are calling
it for here.

Let's separate the "update ownership" into a new helper (pid_update_inode())
and use it, both in lookups and in pid_revalidate() itself.

The comments in pid_revalidate() are also out of date - they refer to
the time when pid_revalidate() used to call d_drop() directly...

proc shows task-&gt;comm in three places - comm, stat, status - and each
is fetching and formatting task-&gt;comm slighly differently.  This patch
renames task_name() to proc_task_name(), makes it more generic, and
updates all three paths to use it.

This will enable expanding comm reporting for workqueue workers.

Provide two extra functions, proc_create_net_data_write() and
proc_create_net_single_write() that act like their non-write versions but
also set a write method in the proc_dir_entry struct.

An internal simple write function is provided that will copy its buffer and
hand it to the pde-&gt;write() method if available (or give an error if not).
The buffer may be modified by the write method.
