Makes sense

*UGH*

Both to the original state and that kind of "adjustments".
Incidentally, with __bugger_layout in there these expressions
are simply wrong.

If nothing else, I would suggest turning the last one into
	char inline_name[];
in hope that layout won't get... randomized that much and
used

#ifdef CONFIG_64BIT
#define PDE_SIZE 192
#else
#define PDE_SIZE 128
#endif

union __proc_dir_entry {
	char pad[PDE_SIZE];
	struct proc_dir_entry real;
};

#define SIZEOF_PDE_INLINE_NAME (PDE_SIZE - offsetof(struct proc_dir_entry, inline_name))

for constants, adjusted sizeof and sizeof_field when creating
proc_dir_entry_cache and turned proc_root into

union __proc_dir_entry __proc_root = { .real = {
        .low_ino        = PROC_ROOT_INO,
        .namelen        = 5,
        .mode           = S_IFDIR | S_IRUGO | S_IXUGO,
        .nlink          = 2,
        .refcnt         = REFCOUNT_INIT(1),
        .proc_iops      = &proc_root_inode_operations,
        .proc_fops      = &proc_root_operations,
        .parent         = &__proc_root.real,
        .subdir         = RB_ROOT,
        .name           = __proc_root.real.inline_name,
        .inline_name    = "/proc",
}};

#define proc_root __proc_root.real
(or actually used __proc_root.real in all of a 6 places where it remains).

<shakes head>
You and your "size_t is evil" crusade...
