    akiphie points out that a.out core-dumps have that odd task struct
    dumping that was never used and was never really a good idea (it goes
    back into the mists of history, probably the original core-dumping
    code).  Just remove it.
    
    Also do the access_ok() check on dump_write().  It probably doesn't
    matter (since normal filesystems all seem to do it anyway), but he
    points out that it's normally done by the VFS layer, so ...
    
    [ I suspect that we should possibly do "vfs_write()" instead of
      calling ->write directly.  That also does the whole fsnotify and write
      statistics thing, which may or may not be a good idea. ]
    
    And just to be anal, do this all for the x86-64 32-bit a.out emulation
    code too, even though it's not enabled (and won't currently even
    compile)
