Subject: [PATCH 0/3] s/PF_BORROWED_MM/PF_KTHREAD/

The first 2 patches were silently ignored, resend. I don't really understand
who should be cc'ed on this.

The third one is an example. Obviously we can fix the problem without changing
use_mm/PF_BORROWED_MM, but in that case we must do task_lock/unlock for each
process in the system, not good and annoying.

Oleg.
