restrict reading from /proc/<pid>/maps to those who share ->mm or can ptrace pid

Browse Source 
Contents of /proc/*/maps is sensitive and may become sensitive after
open() (e.g.  if target originally shares our ->mm and later does exec
on suid-root binary).

Check at read() (actually, ->start() of iterator) time that mm_struct
we'd grabbed and locked is
 - still the ->mm of target
 - equal to reader's ->mm or the target is ptracable by reader.
