Subject: coredump: kill mm->core_done
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27-rc1~336
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a94e2d408eaedbd85aae259621d46fafc10479a2;p=linux-2.6

coredump: kill mm->core_done

Now that we have core_state->dumper list we can use it to wake up the
sub-threads waiting for the coredump completion.

This uglifies the code and .text grows by 47 bytes, but otoh mm_struct
lessens by sizeof(struct completion).  Also, with this change we can
decouple exit_mm() from the coredumping code.
