    proc: Clear the pieces of proc_inode that proc_evict_inode cares about · 71448011

    This just keeps everything tidier, and allows for using flags like
    SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU where slabs are not always cleared before reuse.
    I don't see reuse without reinitializing happening with the proc_inode
    but I had a false alarm while reworking flushing of proc dentries and
    indoes when a process dies that caused me to tidy this up.
    
    The code is a little easier to follow and reason about this
    way so I figured the changes might as well be kept.
