I'd much rather start from scratch. Like the attached.
Alexey Izbyshev has a third patch that then limits the setproctitle()
case to only allow looking into the env[] area, which looks
reasonable.

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] /proc/<pid>/cmdline: remove all the special cases
Start off with a clean slate that only reads exactly from arg_start to
arg_end, without any oddities.
We'll add back the setproctitle() special case very differently in the
next commit.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] /proc/<pid>/cmdline: add back the setproctitle() special
case
This makes the setproctitle() special case very explicit indeed, and
handles it with a separate helper function entirely.
This makes the logic about when we use the string lengths etc much more
obvious, and makes it easy to see what we do.
[ Fixed for missing 'count' check noted by Alexey Izbyshev ]
