commit 1e83f8634c6efe7dd4e6036ee202ca10bdbca0b3

concrete /proc/mounts

When the size of /proc/mounts exceeds PAGE_SIZE, seq_read() has to
release namespace_sem via mounts_op.m_stop(). It means if someone else
issues mount(2) or umount(2) and the mounts list got changed, then the
continuous getmntent(3) calls show the incomplete mounts list and some
entries may not appear in it.

This patch generates the full mounts list when mounts_op.m_start() is
called, and keep it in the seq_file buffer until the file is closed.
The size of the buffer increases if necessary. Other operations m_next,
m_stop, m_show become meaningless, but still necessary for the seq_file
manner.

I don't think the size of the buffer matters because many /proc entries
already keep the similar PAGE_SIZE buffer. Increasing /proc/mounts
buffer is to keep the correctness of the mount list.
