Those proc entries were added for testing HSM
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_storage_management) during
the time of developing Lustre HSM feature. Now the HSM feature is
almost completed, those files no longer serve their purpose and can be
removed so that no one would develop dependency upon it after Lustre
HSM is announced released.

I'll add this to the commit message.

Thanks for reviewing,
Tao
