+Current inode allocations in the proc-fs (hex-numbers):
+
+  00000000              reserved
+  00000001-00000fff     static entries  (goners)
+       001              root-ino
+
+  00001000-00001fff     unused
+  0001xxxx-7fffxxxx     pid-dir entries for pid 1-7fff
+  80000000-efffffff     unused
+  f0000000-ffffffff     dynamic entries
+
+Goal:
+        a) once we'll split the thing into several virtual filesystems we
+        will get rid of magical ranges (and this file, BTW).
