[PATCH 1/4] coredump: turn mm->core_startup_done into the pointer to struct core_state

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Sat Jun 28 2008 - 09:16:00 EST


mm->core_startup_done points to "struct completion startup_done" allocated on
the coredump_wait()'s stack. Introduce the new structure, core_state, which
holds this "struct completion". This way we can add more info visible to the
threads participating in coredump without enlarging mm_struct.

No changes in affected .o files.
