top: adapt for running with proc mounted as subset=pid
As the issue cited below illustrates, a pids namespace
with proc mounted as subset=pid denies our library any
access to non-task data. In top's case, the result was
a fatal error message which involved "cpu statistics".
With this patch top will now assume an error involving
global cpu (stat) or memory (meminfo) data means we're
running under a restricted pids namespace. As such, an
attempt will be made to still display task level data.
[ if our assumption is incorrect, it's of no matter. ]
[ instead of a fatal error, we'll still try to offer ]
[ a user some minimally useful bit of functionality. ]
