Yeah, I guess it's good to be consistent with what's being broadcast
via udev et al. I still that '!' in pathnames or '/' in device names
is really gross and shows no taste, though. :-)
Here's what I've checked into the ext4 patch queue for submission to
mainline at the next merge window. I've added a bit more error
checking in case proc_mkdir() fails and returns NULL.

ext4: fix #11321: create /proc/ext4/*/stats more carefully
From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx>
ext4 creates per-suberblock directory in /proc/ext4/ . Name used as
basis is taken from bdevname, which, surprise, can contain slash.
However, proc while allowing to use proc_create("a/b", parent) form of
PDE creation, assumes that parent/a was already created.
bdevname in question is 'cciss/c0d0p9', directory is not created and all
this stuff goes directly into /proc (which is real bug).
Warning comes when _second_ partition is mounted.
