Subject: [PATCH] NOMMU: Check that access_process_vm() has a valid target
From: David Howells <dhowells@...hat.com>
Check that access_process_vm() is accessing a valid mapping in the target
process.
This limits ptrace() accesses and accesses through /proc/<pid>/maps to only
those regions actually mapped by a program.
