Subject: [PATCH 5.2 159/215] proc: use down_read_killable mmap_sem for /proc/pid/clear_refs
[ Upstream commit c46038017fbdcac627b670c9d4176f1d0c2f5fa3 ]
Do not remain stuck forever if something goes wrong. Using a killable
lock permits cleanup of stuck tasks and simplifies investigation.
Replace the only unkillable mmap_sem lock in clear_refs_write().
