The patch updates the documentation for /proc.  super-nr and super-max have
been dropped from the kernel since 2.4.9 due to minor numbering issues.
This change was not documented in the documentation.

Represents the number of free inodes. Ie. The number of inuse inodes is

super-nr and super-max
----------------------

Again, super block structures are allocated by the kernel, but not freed. The
file super-max contains the maximum number of super block handlers, where
super-nr shows the number of currently allocated ones.

Every mounted file system needs a super block, so if you plan to mount lots of
file systems, you may want to increase these numbers.
