kernel: fix race condition between mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm() and core dumping

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel where the coredump implementation does not use locking or other mechanisms to prevent vma layout or vma flags changes while it runs. This allows local users to obtain sensitive information, cause a denial of service DoS, or possibly have unspecified other impa...
