Somehow I can guess your problem, but again it's up to your own decision to
fix it up. IIRC, "Linux Kernel Module Programming Guide" ( you can search it
in www.tldp.org) has a section describing about read/write operation on
/proc. One of the examples written in the related section clearly explains
how to output a lot of data (like you wanna do, right?).
Sorry for this small hint, it's all I know.
