Userland programs are those that are not kernel nor kernel loaded
modules. They have some code running in user mode but call
systemcalls for specific tasks. 
These are in /bin, /usr/bin, /sbin but also the library calls of
shared object libraries run in user mode.

Ok. Just to be sure this can't be the cause.

It looks reasonable. It's not empty. It seems all processes have a
directory here.
(I don't know whether linprocfs depends on procfs.)

I can't think of another cause now. Sorry.
