Andrew Morton 5d7e0d2bd9 Fix pagemap_read() use of struct mm_walk
Fix some issues in pagemap_read noted by Alexey:

- initialize pagemap_walk.mm to "mm" , so the code starts working as
  advertised

- initialize ->private to "&pm" so it wouldn't immediately oops in
  pagemap_pte_hole()

- unstatic struct pagemap_walk, so two threads won't fsckup each other
  (including those started by root, including flipping ->mm when you don't
  have permissions)

- pagemap_read() contains two calls to ptrace_may_attach(), second one
  looks unneeded.

- avoid possible kmalloc(0) and integer wraparound.
