Subject: [PATCH] fs, proc: Add start_data, end_data, start_brk members to /proc/$pid/stat v4

These members are involved into calculation of program
data segment (which might be seen in /proc/<pid>/statm)
and into brk() call, so in a sake of restore we need
these entries to be set exactly to the same value the
process had at dumpimg time.

While setting these entries back to a running task
is supposed to be done via prctl interface (which is
not addressed in this patch) the export of these values
are done via /proc/$pid/stat, which already have start_code,
end_code and start_stack entries.

v2:
 - Kees and Alexey pointed out that "1" hack is unnecessary,
   so make it to have plain (mm && permitted) ? mm->member : 0
   form.

v3:
 - Andrew pointed that documentation update is missed.
   Chagelog is updated as well.

v4:
 - Update proc.txt to address concerns from Kees and Kame.
