Alexey Dobriyan 786d7e1612 Fix rmmod/read/write races in /proc entries
Fix following races:
===========================================
1. Write via ->write_proc sleeps in copy_from_user(). Module disappears
   meanwhile. Or, more generically, system call done on /proc file, method
   supplied by module is called, module dissapeares meanwhile.

   pde = create_proc_entry()
   if (!pde)
	return -ENOMEM;
   pde->write_proc = ...
				open
				write
				copy_from_user
   pde = create_proc_entry();
   if (!pde) {
	remove_proc_entry();
	return -ENOMEM;
	/* module unloaded */
   }
				*boom*
==========================================
2. bogo-revoke aka proc_kill_inodes()

  remove_proc_entry		vfs_read
  proc_kill_inodes		[check ->f_op validness]
				[check ->f_op->read validness]
				[verify_area, security permissions checks]
	->f_op = NULL;
				if (file->f_op->read)
					/* ->f_op dereference, boom */

NOTE, NOTE, NOTE: file_operations are proxied for regular files only. Let's
see how this scheme behaves, then extend if needed for directories.
Directories creators in /proc only set ->owner for them, so proxying for
directories may be unneeded.

NOTE, NOTE, NOTE: methods being proxied are ->llseek, ->read, ->write,
->poll, ->unlocked_ioctl, ->ioctl, ->compat_ioctl, ->open, ->release.
If your in-tree module uses something else, yell on me. Full audit pending.
