The architecture specific information of the running processes could
be useful to the userland. Add support to examine process architecture
specific information externally.

This pointlessly bloats other architectures.  Do this instead in an
appropriate header:

#ifndef arch_proc_pid_status
static inline void arch_proc_pid_status(...)
{
}
#endif

I saw a bunch of similar weak functions, is it not acceptable?

fs/proc$ grep weak *.c
cpuinfo.c:__weak void arch_freq_prepare_all(void)
meminfo.c:void __attribute__((weak)) arch_report_meminfo(struct seq_file *m)
vmcore.c:int __weak elfcorehdr_alloc(unsigned long long *addr, unsigned long long *size)

vmcore.c:int __weak remap_oldmem_pfn_range(struct vm_area_struct *vma,
vmcore.c:ssize_t __weak

I think they're acceptable, but I don't personally like them.

okay, let me try to see if I can refine it in an appropriate way.

Hi Andy,

Is this what you want? 

Thanks,
