[PATCH] ipc: use helpers for rlimits

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Wed Jan 06 2010 - 10:26:23 EST


Make sure compiler won't do weird things with limits. E.g. fetching
them twice may return 2 different values after writable limits are
implemented.

I.e. either use rlimit helpers added in
3e10e716abf3c71bdb5d86b8f507f9e72236c9cd
or ACCESS_ONCE if not applicable.
