[PATCH 08/17] proc: merge proc_pid_readlink() into proc_pid_get_link()

[Miklos Szeredi]

This will allow us to move the generic readlink logic into the VFS and get
rid of the readlink method.

And it's a cleanup, removing more lines than it adds, since the two
functions have a lot in common.

/proc/$$/map_files/A allowed reading the symlink with the normal proc
permission checks, but following only allowed for CAP_SYS_ADMIN capable
tasks.  So in proc_map_files_get_link() check for is_following_link()
before bailing out if not CAP_SYS_ADMIN capable.
