devproc: return process id when reading /proc/n/ctl file
allow reading the control file of a process and return
its pid number. if the process has exited, return an error.
this can be usefull as a way to test if a process is
still alive. and also makes it behave similar to
network protocol directories.
another side effect is that processes who erroneously
open the ctl file ORDWR would be allowed todo so as
along as they have write permission and the process is
not a kernel process.
