Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs-2.6:
  deal with races in /proc/*/{syscall,stack,personality}
  proc: enable writing to /proc/pid/mem
  proc: make check_mem_permission() return an mm_struct on success
  proc: hold cred_guard_mutex in check_mem_permission()
  proc: disable mem_write after exec
  mm: implement access_remote_vm
  mm: factor out main logic of access_process_vm
  mm: use mm_struct to resolve gate vma's in __get_user_pages
  mm: arch: rename in_gate_area_no_task to in_gate_area_no_mm
  mm: arch: make in_gate_area take an mm_struct instead of a task_struct
  mm: arch: make get_gate_vma take an mm_struct instead of a task_struct
  x86: mark associated mm when running a task in 32 bit compatibility mode
  x86: add context tag to mark mm when running a task in 32-bit compatibility mode
  auxv: require the target to be tracable (or yourself)
  close race in /proc/*/environ
  report errors in /proc/*/*map* sanely
  pagemap: close races with suid execve
  make sessionid permissions in /proc/*/task/* match those in /proc/*
  fix leaks in path_lookupat()

Fix up trivial conflicts in fs/proc/base.c

mm/memory.c
