See my comments on patch 15 - I think you'll have to reorder this
patch after the introduction of task_struct::real_fs and changing
procfs to access task_struct::real_fs.

I'm not sure what the smp_store_release() is supposed to pair with; if
you get rid of remote access to task_struct::fs as I suggest on patch
15, it could be a plain store, otherwise it would have to happen under
task_lock().
