Log Message:
	Fix for CVE-2017-1000367, parsing of /proc/pid/stat on Linux when
	the process name contains spaces.  Since the user has control over
	the command name this could be used by a user with sudo access to
	overwrite an arbitrary file.
	Thanks to Qualys for investigating and reporting this bug.

	Also stop performing a breadth-first traversal of /dev when looking
	for the device.  Only the directories specified in search_devs[]
	are checked.
