    audit: reduce mmap_sem hold for mm->exe_file · 5b282552

    The mm->exe_file is currently serialized with mmap_sem (shared)
    in order to both safely (1) read the file and (2) audit it via
    audit_log_d_path(). Good users will, on the other hand, make use
    of the more standard get_mm_exe_file(), requiring only holding
    the mmap_sem to read the value, and relying on reference counting
    to make sure that the exe file won't dissapear underneath us.
    
    Additionally, upon NULL return of get_mm_exe_file, we also call
    audit_log_format(ab, " exe=(null)").
