Yes, this should fix the problem with kthread_stop()...

Damn, Konstantin I have to admit, I'll try to find another technical
reason against mm-correctly-synchronize-rss-counters-at-exit-exec.patch
even with this fix ;)

Most probably I am wrong, but it looks overcomplicated. Somehow I
dislike irrationally the fact you moved mm_release() from exit_mm().

But, once again, it is not that I see the better solution.

2/2 looks fine at first glance... and afaics it is "off-topic".

Oleg.
