In this patch I leave mm->exe_file lockless. After exec/fork we can change it only for current task and only if mm->mm_users == 1.
something like this:
task_lock(current); if (atomic_read(¤t->mm->mm_users) == 1) set_mm_exe_file(current->mm, new_file); else ret = -EBUSY; task_unlock(current);
task_lock() protect this code against get_task_mm()
