When a file descriptor limit is hit, display the top consumers of
descriptors so that it is possible to identify and fix those which
leak them.
Two new sysctl tunables are introduced:
* file-max-consumers -- number of processes to display (defaults
to 10);
* file-max-rate-limit -- time interval between subsequent dumps
(defaults to 10 seconds).

Changes:
v3 -- fix a couple of silly checkpatch errors
v2 -- add rate-limiting and reduce number of processes to be output
v1 -- initial implementation.
