Subject: [PATCH v4 04/12] rlimits: selinux, do rlimits changes under task_lock

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@...hat.com>

When doing an exec, selinux updates rlimits in its code of current
process depending on current max. Make sure max or cur doesn't change
in the meantime by grabbing task_lock which do_prlimit needs for
changing limits too.

While at it, use rlimit helper for accessing CPU rlimit a line below.
To have a volatile access too.
