    fix NULL pointer dereference in __vm_enough_memory() · 34b4e4aa
    Alan Cox 提交于
    The new exec code inserts an accounted vma into an mm struct which is not
    current->mm.  The existing memory check code has a hard coded assumption
    that this does not happen as does the security code.
    
    As the correct mm is known we pass the mm to the security method and the
    helper function.  A new security test is added for the case where we need
    to pass the mm and the existing one is modified to pass current->mm to
    avoid the need to change large amounts of code.
