    [ATM]: Oops reading net/atm/arp
    
    cat /proc/net/atm/arp causes the NULL pointer dereference in the
    get_proc_net+0xc/0x3a. This happens as proc_get_net believes that the
    parent proc dir entry contains struct net.
    
    Fix this assumption for "net/atm" case.
    
    The problem is introduced by the commit 
c0097b07abf5f92ab135d024dd41bd2aada1512f
    from Eric W. Biederman/Daniel Lezcano.
