proc: use slower rb_first()

In a typical for /proc "open+read+close" usecase, dentry is looked up
successfully on open only to be killed in dput() on close.  In fact
dentries which aren't /proc/*/...  and /proc/sys/* were almost NEVER
CACHED.  Simple printk in proc_lookup_de() shows that.

Now that ->delete hook intelligently picks which dentries should live in
dcache and which should not, rbtree caching is not necessary as dcache
does it job, at last!

As a side effect, struct proc_dir_entry shrinks by one pointer which can
go into inline name.
