Don't use create_proc_read_entry() as that is deprecated, but rather use

It seems to work okay and is simpler than I thought it would be! You changed
the mode of the file to 0644 for some reason though. Please change it back to
0444 or S_IFREG | S_IRUGO. Thanks.

Ah... cut'n'paste error. Sorry about that.

I can fix that up by hand when I apply it, no worries.

You may need to sync with linux-next first, particularly commit e784788ddb7000dbea8bd2986a3f83c4d77f96ff by Al Viro "get rid of a bunch of open-coded create_proc_read_entry()".
