[PATCH v2 1/6] proc: use down_read_killable mmap_sem for /proc/pid/maps

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov
Date: Sun Jun 09 2019 - 06:13:25 EST


Do not stuck forever if something wrong.
Killable lock allows to cleanup stuck tasks and simplifies investigation.

This function also used for /proc/pid/smaps.
