mm: arch: make in_gate_area take an mm_struct instead of a task_struct
Morally, the question of whether an address lies in a gate vma should be asked with respect to an mm, not a particular task. Moreover, dropping the dependency on task_struct will help make existing and future operations on mm's more flexible and convenient.
