[28/93] resource: add helpers for fetching rlimits

[Greg KH]

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@xxxxxxx>

commit 3e10e716abf3c71bdb5d86b8f507f9e72236c9cd upstream.

We want to be sure that compiler fetches the limit variable only
once, so add helpers for fetching current and maximal resource
limits which do that.

Add them to sched.h (instead of resource.h) due to circular dependency
 sched.h->resource.h->task_struct
Alternative would be to create a separate res_access.h or similar.
