[ATM]: Oops reading net/atm/arp
cat /proc/net/atm/arp causes the NULL pointer dereference in the get_proc_net+0xc/0x3a. This happens as proc_get_net believes that the parent proc dir entry contains struct net. Fix this assumption for "net/atm" case. The problem is introduced by the commit c0097b07abf5f92ab135d024dd41bd2aada1512f from Eric W. Biederman/Daniel Lezcano. Signed-off-by: Denis V.
