From 3bbfe0596746e1590888a6e1e6a07583265238b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Dobriyan Date: Fri, 10 Oct 2008 03:27:16 +0400 Subject: proc: remove kernel.maps_protect After commit 831830b5a2b5d413407adf380ef62fe17d6fcbf2 aka "restrict reading from /proc//maps to those who share ->mm or can ptrace" sysctl stopped being relevant because commit moved security checks from ->show time to ->start time (mm_for_maps()).
