Use find_get_task_by_vpid() to replace the task_struct find logic in find_mm_struct(), note that this patch move the ptrace_may_access() call out from rcu_read_lock() scope, this is ok because it actually does not need it, find_get_task_by_vpid() already get the pid and task safely, ptrace_may_access() can use the task safely, like what sched_core_share_pid() similarly do.
