PATCH 1/1 fs/proc/task_mmu.c: Include backslash when escaping file names

Files named "foo\nbar" and "foo\\012bar" are
both shown as "foo\\012bar" in /proc/PID files,
because show_map_vma() and show_numa_map() in fs/proc/task_mmu.c do not include backslash in the escaped set when calling seq_file_path(). Fix this by including backslash in the escaped set.
