[PATCH -mm] proc: faster open/close of files without ->release hook

[Alexey Dobriyan]

The whole point of code in fs/proc/inode.c is to make sure ->release
hook is called either at close() or at rmmod time.

All if it is unnecessary if there is no ->release hook.

Save allocation+list manipulations under spinlock in that case.
