[PATCH] PR_GET_DUMPABLE returns incorrect info
2.6.13 incorporated Alan Cox's patch for /proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable (one
version of this patch can be found here
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=
109647550421014&w=2 ).
This patch also made corresponding changes in kernel/sys.c to change the
prctl() PR_SET_DUMPABLE operation so that the permitted range of 'arg2' was
modified from 0..1 to 0..2.
However, a corresponding change was not made for PR_GET_DUMPABLE: if the
dumpable flag is non-zero, then PR_GET_DUMPABLE always returns 1, so that
the caller can't determine the true setting of this flag.
