[PATCH] _proc_do_string(): fix short reads
If you try to read things like /proc/sys/kernel/osrelease with single-byte
reads, you get just one byte and then EOF. This is because _proc_do_string()
assumes that the caller is read()ing into a buffer which is large enough to
fit the whole string in a single hit.
Fix.
