[PATCH 2/2] um: defer killing userspace on page table update failures

[Johannes Berg]

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg at intel.com>

In some cases we can get to fix_range_common() with mmap_sem held,
and in others we get there without it being held. For example, we
get there with it held from sys_mprotect(), and without it held
from fork_handler().

Avoid any issues in this and simply defer killing the task until
it runs the next time. Do it on the mm so that another task that
shares the same mm can't continue running afterwards.
