sorry. but /proc itself is fine...
the question was: why does the config access and btrfs work as modules,
but noy when built _into_ the kernel

Just a guess: the built-in file system starts up before
the /proc filesystem is mounted.

You should return to a module and set it up into the initrd.

Still doesn't explain why the exact same options are working on a x85-64 system

on my laptop (t430) I'm using slackwares Kernel, which has almost everything compiled in,
there's no initrd, there root (/) is on a btrfs and /proc is fine.
So I'm guessing I may miss some 'helper' / glue option in the kernel config to make this work as
builtin ... (I don't like initrds as I tend to forget to update them :-) )
