Subject: [PATCH] mm: use down_read_killable for locking mmap_sem in access_remote_vm
Date: Wed, 15 May 2019 11:21:18 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <155790847881.2798.7160461383704600177.stgit@buzz> (raw)

This function is used by ptrace and proc files like /proc/pid/cmdline and
/proc/pid/environ. Return 0 (bytes read) if current task is killed.

Mmap_sem could be locked for a long time or forever if something wrong.
