Okay, I will add some comment but do not want to fix code piece until
someone want to expose the poisoning to external process.

Then, do you mind sending a patch based upon this series to expose
MADV_MERGEABLE to process_madvise? It will have the right description
why you want to have such feature which I couldn't provide since I don't
have enough material to write the motivation. And the patch also could
include the logic to prevent coredump race, which is more proper since
finally we need to hold mmap_sem write-side lock, finally.
I will pick it up and will rebase since then.
Thanks.
