Subject: [GIT PULL] Minor ptrace fixes for v5.2-rc5
Linus,
Please pull the for-linus branch from the git tree:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace.git for-linus
HEAD:f6581f5b55141a95657ef5742cf6a6bfa20a109f ptrace: restore smp_rmb() in __ptrace_may_access()
This is just two very minor fixes. Preventing ptrace from reading
unitialized kernel memory found twice by syzkaller, and restoring a
missing smp_rmb in ptrace_may_access and commening it so it is not
removed by accident again.
Apologies for being a little slow about getting this to you, I am still
figuring out how to develop with a little baby in the house.
