Revision 3aa0ce825ade0cf5506e32ccf51d01fc8d22a9cf authored by Linus Torvalds on 14 October 2010, 21:32:06 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 14 October 2010, 21:32:06 UTC
Tony Luck reports that the addition of the access_ok() check in commit
0eead9ab41da ("Don't dump task struct in a.out core-dumps") broke the
ia64 compile due to missing the necessary header file includes.

Rather than add yet another include (<asm/unistd.h>) to make everything
happy, just uninline the silly core dump helper functions and move the
bodies to fs/exec.c where they make a lot more sense.

dump_seek() in particular was too big to be an inline function anyway,
and none of them are in any way performance-critical.  And we really
don't need to mess up our include file headers more than they already
are.
