Agreed, it would be nice to rename (and move out of ptrace.c) but I am
not going to do this, I can't suggest the better naming.
But I think it would be nice to kill __ptrace_may_access() and use
ptrace_may_access() everywhere. ptrace_attach() is trivial, the only
other caller is mm_for_maps().
Oleg.
