Christoph Hellwig April 25, 2018, 3:47 p.m. UTC
Variants of proc_create{,_data} that directly take a seq_file show
callback and drastically reduces the boilerplate code in the callers.

All trivial callers converted over.

I don't think that the introduction of proc_create_single{,_data} alters 
the value of that comment. That comment and similar comments in the same 
file do have a purpose, which is to keep separate the /proc/nubus 
implementation is kept separate from the /proc/bus/nubus/devices 
implementation and so on.
