Subject: [PATCH] kernel/fork.c : remove local 'oldmm' and retval
Local oldmm is used only for increaing mm_users field
in current->mm. When clone_flags have a CLONE_VM flag,
current->mm is assigning to local 'mm'.
Local retval is used only for returning -ENOMEM value.
When dup_mm() is failed, just return -ENOMEM.
