[PATCH 3/3][mmotm] updateing size of kcore

[KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki]

After memory hotplug (or other events in future), kcore size
can be modified.

To update inode->i_size, we have to know inode/dentry but we
can't get it from inside /proc directly.
But considerinyg memory hotplug, kcore image is updated only when
it's opened. Then, updating inode->i_size at open() is enough.
