[PATCH] coredump_wait() cleanup

[PATCH] coredump_wait() cleanup

[Oleg Nesterov]

This patch deletes pointless (please correct me if I am wrong)
code from coredump_wait().

1. It does useless mm->core_waiters inc/dec under mm->mmap_sem,
   but any changes to ->core_waiters have no effect until we drop
   ->mmap_sem.

2. It calls yield() for absolutely unknown reason.
