This patch uses find_vma() to improve the read response of /proc/pid/maps.
It attempts to make the liner scan instead of quadratic walk and utilise
rb tree. Reading the file was doing sequential scan from the begining to
file position all the time, and taking a quite long time.
The improvements came from f_version/m_version and resulting in mmap_cache match.
Even if mmap_cache does not match, rb tree walk should be faster than sequential
walk. First attempt was to put the state across read system calls into private
data. Later got inspiration from wli's pid patch using f_version in readdir of /proc.
Other advantage is, f_version will be cleared automatically by lseek.
The test program creates 32K maps and splits them into two(limited by max_map_count
sysctl) using mprotect(0). After the patch, the read time improves from many
seconds to milliseconds, and does not grow superlinearly with number of read calls.
Help taken from Peter Swain in idea and testing.
