H A Dbase.cdiff bcf88e1163623e8e8ef2ba7feface9c826a890c9 Sun May 01 10:59:03 CDT 2005 Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> [PATCH] procfs: Fix hardlink counts

The pid directories in /proc/ currently return the wrong hardlink count - 3,
when there are actually 4 : ".", "..", "fd", and "task".

This is easy to notice using find(1):
cd /proc/<pid>
find

In the output, you'll see a message similar to:

find: WARNING: Hard link count is wrong for .: this may be a bug in your
filesystem driver. Automatically turning on find's -noleaf option.
Earlier results may have failed to include directories that should have
been searched.

I also noticed that CONFIG_SECURITY can add a 5th: attr, and performed a
similar fix on the task directories too.
