I do see some problems when I try and boot a kernel without
CONFIG_PROC_FS set.
Things like: sysctl table check failed: /net/ipv4/vs/drop_entry
.3.5.21.4 Missing strategy
These seem to be quite easy to fix by adding the approiate
.stratergy where .proc_handlers are set. I'm just a little unsure
about what locking schemantics are needed for .data that
is referenced outside of proc handlers.
