coredump: elf_fdpic_core_dump: use core_state->dumper list
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Kill the nasty rcu_read_lock() + do_each_thread() loop, use the list
encoded in mm->core_state instead, s/GFP_ATOMIC/GFP_KERNEL/.

This patch allows futher cleanups in binfmt_elf_fdpic.c.
