[Drbd-dev] simplify procfs code for seq_file instances V2

We currently have hundreds of proc files that implement plain, read-only
seq_file based interfaces.  This series consolidates them using new
procfs helpers that take the seq_operations or simple show callback
directly.

A git tree is available at:

    git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git proc_create.2

Gitweb:

Changes since V1:
 - open code proc_create_data to avoid setting not fully initialized
   entries live
 - use unsigned int for state_size
 - dropped the s390/cio/blacklist hunk as it has a write method
 - dropped the IPMI patch given that IPMI proc support is scheduled for
   removal.
