[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 203/330] proc: io_accounting: Use new infrastructure to fix deadlocks in execve

[Sasha Levin]

From: Bernd Edlinger <bernd.edlinger@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 76518d3798855242817e8a8ed76b2d72f4415624 ]

This changes do_io_accounting to use the new exec_update_mutex
instead of cred_guard_mutex.

This fixes possible deadlocks when the trace is accessing
/proc/$pid/io for instance.

This should be safe, as the credentials are only used for reading.
