proc: calculate the correct /proc/<pid> link count

This patch:

  commit e9720acd728a46cb40daa52c99a979f7c4ff195c
  Author: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org>

    [NET]: Make /proc/net a symlink on /proc/self/net (v3)

introduced a /proc/self/net directory without bumping the corresponding
link count for /proc/self.

This patch replaces the static link count initializations with a call that
counts the number of directory entries in the given pid_entry table
whenever it is instantiated, and thus relieves the burden of manually
keeping the two in sync.
