update procfs-guide doc of read_func

The procfs-guide claims that 'the parameter start doesn't seem to be used
anywhere in the kernel'.  This is out of date.  In linux/fs/proc/generic.c
we find a very nice description of the parameters to read_func.  The
appended patch replaces the bogus description with this (as far as I know)
accurate one.
