From: Ajay Kaher <akaher@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch is the extension of following upstream commit to fix the race condition between get_task_mm() and core dumping for IB->mlx4 and IB->mlx5 drivers: commit 04f5866e41fb ("coredump: fix race condition between mmget_not_zero()/get_task_mm() and core dumping")' Thanks to Jason for pointing this.
