[PATCH] proc: Remove tasklist_lock from proc_pid_readdir

We don't need the tasklist_lock to safely iterate through processes
anymore.

This depends on my previous to task patches that make get_task_struct rcu
safe, and that make next_task() rcu safe.  I haven't gotten
first_tid/next_tid yet only because next_thread is missing an
rcu_dereference.
