proc: prevent changes to overridden credentials
commit 35a196bef449b5824033865b963ed9a43fb8c730 upstream.
Prevent userspace from changing the the /proc/PID/attr values if the
task's credentials are currently overriden. This not only makes sense
conceptually, it also prevents some really bizarre error cases caused
when trying to commit credentials to a task with overridden
credentials.
