Well write doesn't happen. But even more so proc_nr_files() dynamically
generates files_stat.nr_files. That doesn't happen on the generic
sysctl path, and thus it's broken.
Yes. I'm being picky, because at some point in the past before
that was a per cpu variable the code worked, and won't look broken
now unless you examine the contents of the data.
