Subject: [PATCH 3/4] NOMMU: Make it possible to get the per-task stack usage
	through /proc for NOMMU

Make it possible to get the per-task stack usage through /proc on a NOMMU
system.  This is required because walk_page_range() doesn't work on NOMMU.

	# grep "Stack usage:" /proc/*/status
	/proc/1/status:Stack usage:	2 kB
	/proc/56/status:Stack usage:	2 kB
	/proc/57/status:Stack usage:	1 kB
	/proc/58/status:Stack usage:	2 kB
	/proc/59/status:Stack usage:	5 kB
	/proc/self/status:Stack usage:	1 kB

I've only tested it with ELF-FDPIC, though it should work with FLAT too.
