Subject: linux-3.10-rc1 procfs interface breaks vmware, eicon, fio .... any fix?

Anyone on lkml working on patches for vmware to make it run on
Linux-3.10-rc1? The recent change in procfs interface breaks vmware,
diva/eicon and fio modules.

Every modules is now broken and needs to be reworked. Is there a more
subtle way to handle this like give more time to allow developers to
handle the move rather than killing off the "tranditional" procfs
access ... like a warning that the interface is going away soon?

Thanks,
Jeff
