[PATCH v3] procfs: add seq_put_hex_ll to speed up /proc/pid/maps

[Andrei Vagin <avagin@openvz.org>]

seq_put_hex_ll() prints a number in hexadecimal notation and works
faster than seq_printf().

== test.py
num = 0
with open("/proc/1/maps") as f:
        while num < 10000 :
                data = f.read()
                f.seek(0, 0)
                num = num + 1

      + 15.06% seq_path
      + 4.42% seq_pad
   + 2.45% __GI___libc_read

== After patch ==
-   47.35%     3.38%  python   [kernel.kallsyms] [k] show_map_vma.isra.23
   - 43.97% show_map_vma.isra.23

         + 2.65% seq_put_decimal_ull
           0.95% seq_putc
      + 6.96% seq_pad
   + 2.94% __GI___libc_read

v2: don't create a separate function to print delimiter and a few fixes
to make code more readable.
v3: use unsigned int instead of int where it is suitable.
