If @mm is not the same as current->mm, mpx_notify_unmap() will yield
invalid results and at worst will lead to a crash if it gets called by a
kthread.

The function in question gets called through do_munmap(). ATM kernel does
not use that function on x86 in such context that mm and current->mm would
differ

With the addition of SGX driver code, do_munmap() is called from workqueue
thread. This commit changes the parameter passed to @mm so that this will
yield the correct results and not crash as reference to current->mm would
be NULL in a kthread context.
