kernel: move use_mm/unuse_mm to kthread.c
Patch series "improve use_mm / unuse_mm", v2. This series improves the use_mm / unuse_mm interface by better documenting the assumptions, and my taking the set_fs manipulations spread over the callers into the core API. This patch (of 3): Use the proper API instead. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200404094101.672954-1-hch@lst.de These helpers are only for use with kernel threads, and I will tie them more into the kthread infrastructure going forward. Also move the prototypes to kthread.h - mmu_context.h was a little weird to start with as it otherwise contains very low-level MM bits.
