Subject: [RFC][PATCH] Replacing the /proc/<pid|self>/exe symlink code
This patch avoids holding the mmap semaphore while walking VMAs in response to
programs which read or follow the /proc/<pid|self>/exe symlink. This also allows
us to merge mmu and nommu proc_exe_link() functions. The costs are holding the
task lock, a separate reference to the executable file stored in the task
struct, and increased code in fork, exec, and exit paths.
Changes:
Clear exe_file field in exit path
Use task_lock() to protect exe_file between write and read paths
