Try first to create the directory /compat/linux/proc and then change
the device name to none. It worked for me.  More precisely i run the
following command (after creating the directory):

# mount -t linprocfs none /usr/compat/linux/proc/
# cat /usr/compat/linux/proc/cpuinfo x
processor       : 0
<etc...>
