deal with races in /proc/*/{syscall,stack,personality}
All of those are rw-r--r-- and all are broken for suid - if you open a file before the target does suid-root exec, you'll be still able to access it. For personality it's not a big deal, but for syscall and stack it's a real problem. Fix: check that task is tracable for you at the time of read(). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
