Subject: [RFC 2/2] procfs: /proc/sched_debug fails on very very large machines.

On systems with 4096 cores attemping to read /proc/sched_debug fails.
We are trying to push all the data into a single kmalloc buffer.
The issue is on these very large machines all the data will not fit in 4mb.

A better solution is to not us the single_open mechanism but to provide
our own seq_operations and treat each cpu as an individual record.

The output should be identical to previous version except the trailing '\n'
was dropped.
Does that require incrementing the version?
Or should I find a way to reinclude it?
