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".
