leaking_addresses: skip all /proc/PID except /proc/1
When the system is idle it is likely that most files under /proc/PID will be identical for various processes. Scanning _all_ the PIDs under /proc is unnecessary and implies that we are thoroughly scanning /proc. This is _not_ the case because there may be ways userspace can trigger creation of /proc files that leak addresses but were not present during a scan. For these two reasons we should exclude all PID directories under /proc except '1/' Exclude all /proc/PID except /proc/1. Signed-off-by: Tobin C. Harding <me@tobin.cc>
