perf/x86: Fix RDPMC vs. mm_struct tracking
Vince reported the following rdpmc() testcase failure: > Failing test case: > > fd=perf_event_open(); > addr=mmap(fd); > exec() // without closing or unmapping the event > fd=perf_event_open(); > addr=mmap(fd); > rdpmc() // GPFs due to rdpmc being disabled The problem is of course that exec() plays tricks with what is current->mm, only destroying the old mappings after having installed the new mm. Fix this confusion by passing along vma->vm_mm instead of relying on current->mm.
