This actually doesnt help much but does expand out some useful stuff
currently specific to the wan driver.

I think it is. Certainly if someone came up with a rational format for
all of /proc, that _didnt_ clash with the existing /proc files I would
be willing to go for it and to optionally support 'oldproc' files in
2.2, and lose them over a couple of years as the tools knew the newer
formats.

Whoever does it had better get it right however - we don't want to do
that more than once
