The file permissions on the fdinfo dir from were changed from
S_IRUSR|S_IXUSR to S_IRUGO|S_IXUGO, and a PTRACE_MODE_READ check was added
for opening the fdinfo files [1].  However, the ptrace permission check
was not added to the directory, allowing anyone to get the open FD numbers
by reading the fdinfo directory.

Add the missing ptrace permission check for opening the fdinfo directory.

kzalloc is a memory allocation function which can return NULL when some
internal memory errors happen. It is safer to add null pointer check.

Pull ptrace cleanups from Eric Biederman:
 "This set of changes removes tracehook.h, moves modification of all of

  The removal of tracehook.h is quite significant as it has been a major
  source of confusion in recent years. Much of that confusion was around
  task_work and TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (which I have now decoupled making the
  semantics clearer).

  For people who don't know tracehook.h is a vestiage of an attempt to
  implement uprobes like functionality that was never fully merged, and
  was later superseeded by uprobes when uprobes was merged. For many
  years now we have been removing what tracehook functionaly a little
  bit at a time. To the point where anything left in tracehook.h was

<title>proc/vmcore: fix possible deadlock on concurrent mmap and read</title>

<id>5039b170369d22613ebc07e81410891f52280a45</id>
<content type='text'>
Lockdep noticed that there is chance for a deadlock if we have concurrent
mmap, concurrent read, and the addition/removal of a callback.

As nicely explained by Boqun:
 "Lockdep warned about the above sequences because rw_semaphore is a
  fair read-write lock, and the following can cause a deadlock:

	TASK 1			TASK 2		TASK 3
	======			======		======
	down_write(mmap_lock);
				down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem)
						down_write(vmcore_cb_rwsem); // blocked
	down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem); // cannot get the lock because of the fairness
				down_read(mmap_lock); // blocked

  IOW, a reader can block another read if there is a writer queued by
  the second reader and the lock is fair"

To fix this, convert to srcu to make this deadlock impossible.  We need
srcu as our callbacks can sleep.  With this change, I cannot trigger any
lockdep warnings.

Lockdep noticed that there is chance for a deadlock if we have concurrent
mmap, concurrent read, and the addition/removal of a callback.

As nicely explained by Boqun:
 "Lockdep warned about the above sequences because rw_semaphore is a
  fair read-write lock, and the following can cause a deadlock:

	TASK 1			TASK 2		TASK 3
	======			======		======
	down_write(mmap_lock);
				down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem)
						down_write(vmcore_cb_rwsem); // blocked
	down_read(vmcore_cb_rwsem); // cannot get the lock because of the fairness
				down_read(mmap_lock); // blocked

  IOW, a reader can block another read if there is a writer queued by
  the second reader and the lock is fair"

To fix this, convert to srcu to make this deadlock impossible.  We need
srcu as our callbacks can sleep.  With this change, I cannot trigger any
lockdep warnings.

It's not a standard approach that use __get_free_page() to alloc path
buffer directly.  We'd better use kmalloc and PATH_MAX.

	PAGE_SIZE is different on different archs. An unlinked file
	with very long canonical pathname will readlink differently
	because "(deleted)" eats into a buffer.	--adobriyan

The inode allocation is supposed to use alloc_inode_sb(), so convert
kmem_cache_alloc() of all filesystems to alloc_inode_sb().
