Hmm, currently this behaves like other /proc files, IOW,
echo 'foo' >> /proc/XXX is the same with echo 'foo' > /proc/XXX.

I think it is reasonable for bitmap /proc files to have
echo 'foo' >> /proc/XXX behaves like non-proc files, that is
appending numbers into that file, like what Changli mentioned.

Any objections?

Thanks.
