How is the parse function going?

As there comes more and more places need get_mem_avaliable(), my opinion
is that we can apply your walk_file_lines() patch first, and let the
/proc/meminfo could be read by this lib. Then if we need more proc/files info
in future, adding new separate function is also accepted.

After all, we had discussed that one parse function for each proc file
is very hard to achive.
