Subject: coredump: construct the list of coredumping threads at startup time
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b564daf806d492dd4f7afe9b6c83b8d35d137669;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

coredump: construct the list of coredumping threads at startup time

binfmt->core_dump() has to iterate over the all threads in system in order
to find the coredumping threads and construct the list using the
GFP_ATOMIC allocations.

With this patch each thread allocates the list node on exit_mm()'s stack and
adds itself to the list.

This allows us to do further changes:

	- simplify ->core_dump()

	- change exit_mm() to clear ->mm first, then wait for ->core_done.
	  this makes the coredumping process visible to oom_kill

	- kill mm->core_done
