[PATCH 9/9] procfs: improve /proc/<pid>/stack protection

From: Djalal Harouni
Date: Mon May 26 2014 - 09:39:07 EST


Convert stack from an INF entry to a REG one. This way we can perform
and cache the permission checks during ->open(). We make sure that
/proc/<pid>/stack will continue to use sequence iterators.

The ptrace capability is only cached, it will be re-checked during
->read(). If the opener did not have enough privileges then fail.
