[PATCH] Simplify proc/devices and fix early termination regression
Make baby-simple the code for /proc/devices. Based on the proven design
for /proc/interrupts.
This also fixes the early-termination regression 2.6.16 introduced, as
demonstrated by:
# dd if=/proc/devices bs=1
Character devices:
1 mem
27+0 records in
27+0 records out
This should also work (but is untested) when /proc/devices >4096 bytes,
which I believe is what the original 2.6.16 rewrite fixed.
