Quoting Dan Smith (danms-r/Jw6+rmf7HQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org):
> This patch adds a spot in the task record to save the personality value
> of the task_struct.
>
> It also masks out READ_IMPLIES_EXEC before starting to avoid read-only
> maps being restored as read-exec. To avoid re-setting this flag too early,
> it also introduces a "task_ctx" object to hold information that may be
> collected when reading the task structure, but needs to be restored at a
> later time (such as after the maps are read). Since there may be additional
> settings that need to be deferred until the end of task restore, I decided
> to add the context object and a "cleanup" function to wrap things up.
>
> Changes in v2:
> - Change __u64 to __u32 in the cr_task_hdr
>
> Signed-off-by: Dan Smith <danms-r/Jw6+rmf7HQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>
