That didn't produce anything. I'll run some bisections over the
weekend and see what I can sort out.
*Ugh*

I'd try to build with DEBUG_KMEMLEAK and slapped printks on the entry
and exit from close_pdeo(). If that doesn't show anything interesting,
it's probably unrelated to procfs...
My bisection pointed me to this commit: e41efbf13c15
At this point I am assuming my issue is unrelated to procfs.
Huh? That commit simply moves three functions and one struct from one file to
another...
Yea, I was hoping it made more sense to you then it did do me.
I have some lab time later. I'll verify that is the problem commit.
