Jann Horn 50e04acf29 x86/process: Delete useless check for dead process with LDT
At release_thread(), ->mm is NULL; and it is fine for the former mm to
still have an LDT. Delete this check in process_64.c, similar to
commit 2684927c6b ("[PATCH] x86: Deprecate useless bug"), which did the
same in process_32.c.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
