2.4.14 + Bug in swap_out.

[Eric W. Biederman]

In swap_out we have the following code:

	spin_lock(&mmlist_lock);
	mm = swap_mm;
	while (mm->swap_address == TASK_SIZE || mm == &init_mm) {
		mm->swap_address = 0;
		mm = list_entry(mm->mmlist.next, struct mm_struct, mmlist);
		if (mm == swap_mm)
			goto empty;
		swap_mm = mm;
	}

	/* Make sure the mm doesn't disappear when we drop the lock.. */
	atomic_inc(&mm->mm_users);
	spin_unlock(&mmlist_lock);

	nr_pages = swap_out_mm(mm, nr_pages, &counter, classzone);

	mmput(mm);

And looking in fork.c mmput under with right circumstances becomes.
kmem_cache_free(mm_cachep, (mm)))

So it appears that there is nothing that keeps the mm_struct that
swap_mm points to as being valid. 

I guess the easy fix would be to increment the count on swap_mm,
and then do an mmput we assign something else to the value of swap_mm.  But
I don't know if that is what we want.

Thoughts?
