I don't think there are any good reasons for allowing chmod +x for the
proc generic files.   Certainly executing any of them is nonsense.

I do recall some weird conner cases existing.  I think they resulted
in a need to preserve chmod if not chmod +x.  This is just me saying
tread carefully before you change anything.

It really should be safe to tweak proc_notify_change to not allow
messing with the executable bits of proc files.
