I am not sure that new proc-functions will be welcome, anyway...

[generous code duplication deleted]

You want an initialized array for the strings "RLIMIT_AS", "RLIMIT_CORE", etc.

Unneeded initialization

GFP_XXX must be the second arg.

CodingStyle (the whole patch is terrible).

More code duplication. Use a loop instead.
