fs/proc/task_nommu.c: don't use priv->task->mm
I do not know if CONFIG_PREEMPT/SMP is possible without CONFIG_MMU
but the usage of task->mm in m_stop(). The task can exit/exec before
we take mmap_sem, in this case m_stop() can hit NULL or unlock the
wrong rw_semaphore.
Also, this code uses priv->task != NULL to decide whether we need
up_read/mmput. This is correct, but we will probably kill priv->task.
Change m_start/m_stop to rely on IS_ERR_OR_NULL() like task_mmu.c does.
