On every open/close one struct seq_operations leaks.
Kudos to /proc/slab_allocators.

ouch ...

-stable material too, as far as timer_info/stats goes.

i think seq_release() definitely needs to grow a WARN_ON() if it's being
used on an inode that was opened via single_open(). This bug is so
easily committed, and nothing but a small leak reminds us on it.

Yeah, I'll try to come up with something clean.

Meanwhile full single_open() audit revealed one more such leak.
The rest seems OK.

So I have a patch which will not fully apply to -stable.

Sorry, but I can't be bothered splitting it up. Greg, Chris: please just
apply the bits which apply and drop the other bits if that's OK.
