Subject: [PATCH 2/2] procfs: Mark stack vma with pid of the owning task

This is a usability tweak to the earlier patch to mark thread stack
vmas based on which vma a task is using as stack. With this patch,
each marked stack is also marked with the pid of the task to make
things that little bit easier while troubleshooting issues. I have
tested to confirm that this does not break current procps
behaviour. Thanks Mike Frysinger <vapier@...too.org> for the idea.

An example output of cat /proc/self/maps with this patch:
