This can be used to enforce limits on FDs (RLIMIT_NOFILE), TCP/UDP ports,
locked memory, queued data on sockets, etc. How making proc_counter an
array (currently of size 1) ? Though with this patch there is just one, but it 
will great to have ready support for easily adding more.

How about exporting USAGE, MAX_USAGE and FAILCNT too? These are useful
for resource estimation.
