- Implementation of 7.0.4 from upstream and patch refresh.
- Fix for the "ps" command's display of per-task RSS and %MEM values
in Linux 2.6.34 and later kernels in which SPLIT_RSS_COUNTING is
enabled. Without the patch, the values are only taken from each
task's mm_struct.rss_stat structure, which may contain stale values
because they may not be synchronized with the RSS values stored
in each per-thread task_struct.rss_stat structure; this may lead
to invalid or slightly low RSS values, and worst-case, the %MEM
value may show garbage percentage values.

- Addressed a few (harmless) Coverity Scan complaints in diskdump.c:
1579:dead_error_line – Execution cannot reach this expression ""|""
inside statement "fprintf(fp, "%sDUMP_DH_COMP...".
1574:dead_error_line – Execution cannot reach this expression ""|""
inside statement "fprintf(fp, "%sDUMP_HEADER_...".

- Addressed two warnings when compiling diskdump.c on 32-bit architectures
when the snappy library is built in:
diskdump.c:1046: warning: passing argument 3 of
'snappy_uncompressed_length' from incompatible pointer type
/usr/include/snappy-c.h:120: note: expected ‘size_t *’ but argument
is of type ‘ulong *’
diskdump.c:1056: warning: passing argument 4 of ‘snappy_uncompress’
from incompatible pointer type
/usr/include/snappy-c.h:103: note: expected ‘size_t *’ but argument
is of type ‘ulong *’

- Created a simpler interface with the internal do_list() function.
