[PATCH 2/2] NOMMU: Check that access_process_vm() has a valid target

[David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>]

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Check that access_process_vm() is accessing a valid mapping in the target
process.

This limits ptrace() accesses and accesses through /proc/<pid>/maps to only
those regions actually mapped by a program.
