Subject[19/26] proc: do proper range check on readdir offset
2.6.33-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

commit d8bdc59f215e62098bc5b4256fd9928bf27053a1 upstream.

Rather than pass in some random truncated offset to the pid-related
functions, check that the offset is in range up-front.

This is just cleanup, the previous commit fixed the real problem.
