mm: move use_mm/unuse_mm from aio.c to mm/ Anyone who wants to do copy to/from user from a kernel thread, needs use_mm (like what fs/aio has). Move that into mm/, to make reusing and exporting easier down the line, and make aio use it. Next intended user, besides aio, will be vhost-net.

mm: Map most files to use export.h instead of module.h The files changed within are only using the EXPORT_SYMBOL macro variants. They are not using core modular infrastructure and hence don't need module.h but only the export.h header. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

mm: reduce atomic use on use_mm fast path When the mm being switched to matches the active mm, we don't need to increment and then drop the mm count. In a simple benchmark this happens in about 50% of time. Making that conditional reduces contention on that cacheline on SMP systems.

sched/mm: call finish_arch_post_lock_switch in idle_task_exit and use_mm The finish_arch_post_lock_switch is called at the end of the task switch after all locks have been released. In concept it is paired with the switch_mm function, but the current code only does the call in finish_task_switch. Add the call to idle_task_exit and use_mm. One use case for the additional calls is s390 which will use finish_arch_post_lock_switch to wait for the completion of TLB flush operations.

mm, counters: remove task argument to sync_mm_rss() and __sync_task_rss_stat() sync_mm_rss() can only be used for current to avoid race conditions in iterating and clearing its per-task counters. Remove the task argument for it and its helper function, __sync_task_rss_stat(), to avoid thinking it can be used safely for anything other than current.
