ptrace: PTRACE_GETFDPIC: fix the unsafe usage of child->mm
Now that Mike Frysinger unified the FDPIC ptrace code, we can fix the unsafe usage of child->mm in ptrace_request(PTRACE_GETFDPIC). We have the reference to task_struct, and ptrace_check_attach() verified the tracee is stopped. But nothing can protect from SIGKILL after that, we must not assume child->mm != NULL.
