Subject: [PATCH v3 04/11] rlimits: split sys_setrlimit

From: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@...il.com>

Create do_setrlimit from sys_setrlimit and declare do_setrlimit
in the resource header. This is the firts phase to have generic
do_prlimit which allows to be called from read, write and compat
rlimits code.
