Subject: [PATCH 3.16 017/131] nospec: Allow getting/setting on non-current
 task

3.16.59-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kees Cook <keescook@...omium.org>

commit 7bbf1373e228840bb0295a2ca26d548ef37f448e upstream.

Adjust arch_prctl_get/set_spec_ctrl() to operate on tasks other than
current.

This is needed both for /proc/$pid/status queries and for seccomp (since
thread-syncing can trigger seccomp in non-current threads).
