Subject: [PATCH v4] procfs: Push down the bkl from ioctl

I have updated this patch because the direct pushdown into
the handler was rather invasive and error prone.

Instead I've used wrappers.

Arnd I've kept your ack, hope it's still fine for you.

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH v4] procfs: Push down the bkl from ioctl

Push down the bkl from procfs's ioctl main handler to its users.
Only three procfs users implement an ioctl (non unlocked) handler.
Turn them into unlocked_ioctl and push down the Devil inside.

v2: PDE(inode)->data doesn't need to be under bkl
v3: And don't forget to git-add the result
v4: Use wrappers to pushdown instead of an invasive and error prone
    handlers surgery.
