------------------------------------------------------
Subject: proc: Remove unnecessary and misleading assignments from proc_pid_make_inode
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
The removed fields are already set by proc_alloc_inode. Initializing them in
proc_alloc_inode implies they need it for proper cleanup. At least ei->pde
was not set on all paths making it look like proc_alloc_inode was buggy. So
just remove the redundant assignments.
