[PATCH] io-accounting: report in procfs

Add a simple /proc/pid/io to show the IO accounting fields.

Maybe this shouldn't be merged in mainline - the preferred reporting channel
is taskstats.  But given the poor state of our userspace support for
taskstats, this is useful for developer-testing, at least.  And it improves
the changes that the procps developers will wire it up into top(1).  Opinions
are sought.

The patch also wires up the existing IO-accounting fields.

It's a bit racy on 32-bit machines: if process A reads process B's
/proc/pid/io while process B is updating one of those 64-bit counters, process
A could see an intermediate result.
