Subject: [PATCH 1/6] proc: implement support for automounts in task
	directories

This is current version of /proc/net as separate file system patchset,
rebased, etc. I'll put it into -next again when merge window closes.

Please, review.

Subject: [PATCH 1/6] proc: implement support for automounts in task directories

This is a general mechanism that is capable of removing any unused mounts on
/proc in any directory.  As we flush the mounts when a processes dies this
mechanism is tailored for flushing mounts in the per task and per task group
directories.
