Impact line? Linus put a kibosh on this a while ago...

Although, I will admit that this line is actually useful. Just remove
the brackets.

I really don't like the subtle use of having m->private != NULL mean
this is for tgid listing.

In fact, I don't see the purpose of reusing the seq code. The cmdlines
and tgid map are quite different. Just create its own functions. I
don't see the benefit of trying to reuse this except for making the
code more complex.
