Summary: panic if try to readdir /proc before joining cluster

Initial Comment:
Doing a simple "echo /proc/*" panics the OpenSSI kernel if done from the initrd.  (for debugging for example).

The call trace is:

...
proc_pid_readir
ssig_get_tgid_list
clmns_get_nsc_nodelist
error_code
...
die.

I'd guess we're hitting the SSI_ASSERT(tnlist) in clms_get_nsc_nodelist around ./ci/kernel/cluster/clms/clms_mgmt.c:2425

Maybe not terribly important, but irritating.

Actually it's blowing up because the clms locks &c haven't been set up
yet:

Should maybe be pretending we're in localview mode before cluster code is
initialised.
