[PATCH v2] hide kernel addresses in /proc against privileged users

["Peter Müller" <peter.mueller@link38.eu>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1255 bytes --]

In order to make local privilege escalation more harder, hide
kernel addresses in various /proc files against users with
root (or similar) permissions, too.

Common system hardening tools such as lynis recommend this.

The second version of this patch also increments the package number.
