    proc: don't use FOLL_FORCE for reading cmdline and environment · 272ddc8b

    Now that Lorenzo cleaned things up and made the FOLL_FORCE users
    explicit, it becomes obvious how some of them don't really need
    FOLL_FORCE at all.
    
    So remove FOLL_FORCE from the proc code that reads the command line and
    arguments from user space.
    
    The mem_rw() function actually does want FOLL_FORCE, because gdd (and
    possibly many other debuggers) use it as a much more convenient version
    of PTRACE_PEEKDATA, but we should consider making the FOLL_FORCE part
    conditional on actually being a ptracer.  This does not actually do
    that, just moves adds a comment to that effect and moves the gup_flags
    settings next to each other.
