Bug description:

The PR_DUMPABLE flag causes the pid related paths of the proc file system to
be owned by ROOT.
The implementation of pthread_set/getname_np however needs access to
/proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/comm. If PR_DUMPABLE is false this implementation is
locked out.
This patch installs a special permission function for the file "comm"
that grants read and write access to all threads of the same group regardless
of the ownership of the inode. For all other threads the function falls back
to the generic inode permission check.
