proc.5: statm's "shared" field refers to pages backed by files
...
I noticed that statm's "shared" field doesn't match the sum of
all the "shared" entries in smaps [1].
The kernel docs explain that statm's "shared" field is "number of
pages that are shared (i.e. backed by a file)" [2]. smaps appears
to call a page shared if it's mapped by at least two processes,
which explains this discrepancy.
I'm not a kernel hacker, but it appears to me they do mean "i.e."
and not "e.g." in the statm description: In
fs/proc/task_mmu.c::task_statm, I see
*shared = get_mm_counter(mm, MM_FILEPAGES);
Here's a patch which updates the man page to match the (hopefully
correct) kernel docs.

proc.5: Default for /proc/sys/fs/protected_{hardlinks,symlinks} is now 0
...
The default setting of 1 in/proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks
and /proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks caused one too many
breakages for Linus's taste, so commit 561ec64ae67e changed
the default for both files to 0.

Existing pages variously use "userspace or "user space".
But, "userspace" is not quite an English word.
So change "userspace" to "user space" or, when used
attributively, "user-space".

...
This is more consistent with the term "mounts namespace"
used in the 2008 ACM SIGOPS paper, "Virtual servers
and and checkpoint/restart in mainstream Linux".
(I avoided the "s", because using the plural strikes me
as klunky English, and anyway we don't talk about
the "PIDs namespace" or the "networks namespace", etc..)

In recent times, a number of other namespace flags have been
added to clone(2). As such, it is no longer clear to use
the generic term "namespace" to refer to the particular
namespace controlled by CLONE_NEWNS; instead, use the
term "mount-point namespace".

Update /proc/[number]/cmdline description.
...
It used to be true that the command line arguments were
not accessible when the process had been swapped out.
In ancient kernels (circa 2.0.*) the problem was that the
kernel relied on get_phys_addr to access the user space buffer,
which stopped working as soon as the process was swapped out.
Recent kernels use get_user_pages for the same purpose and thus
they should not have that limitation.

I noticed things to correct and to clarify in subsection
...
"/proc/filesystems" of proc.5:
- clarify filesystems listing: not only FS compiled
into the kernel, also FS kernel modules currently loaded
- add a reference to fs(5)
- add an explanation for FS marked with "nodev"
- s/mount(1)/mount(8)/, also corrected in section "SEE ALSO"
- clarify usage by mount: the current wording may lead to
think /proc/filesystems is always used by mount when no FS
is specified. So, usage of "may" which IMHO is more
appropriate + additionnal explanations
In mount(8) we can see:
If no -t option is given, or if the auto type is
specified, mount will try to guess the desired type.
If mount was compiled with the blkid library, the
guessing is done by this library. Otherwise, mount
guesses itself by probing the superblock; if that
does not turn up anything that looks familiar,
mount will try to read the file /etc/filesystems,
or, if that does not exist, /proc/filesystems.
All of the filesystem types listed there will be
tried, except for those that are labeled "nodev"
(e.g., devpts, proc and nfs). If /etc/filesystems
ends in a line with a single * only, mount will
read /proc/filesystems afterwards.
