patches/old/proc-mark-more-files-as-permanent.patch

From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>
Subject: proc: mark more files as permanent
Date: Tue, 20 Sep 2022 20:35:23 +0300

Mark
	/proc/devices
	/proc/kpagecount
	/proc/kpageflags
	/proc/kpagecgroup
	/proc/loadavg
	/proc/meminfo
	/proc/softirqs
	/proc/uptime
	/proc/version

as permanent /proc entries, saving alloc/free and some list/spinlock ops
per use.

These files are never removed by the kernel so it is OK to mark them.
