proc: always do ->release
Current two-stage scheme of removing PDE emphasizes one bug in proc:
open
rmmod
remove_proc_entry
close
->release won't be called because ->proc_fops were cleared. In simple
cases it's small memory leak.
For every ->open, ->release has to be done. List of openers is introduced
which is traversed at remove_proc_entry() if neeeded.
Discussions with Al long ago (sigh).
