Commit 0a1eb2d474ed ("fs/proc: Stop reporting eip and esp in /proc/PID/stat") disabled stack pointer reading, because it is generally dangerous to do so. Commit fd7d56270b52 ("fs/proc: Report eip/esp in /prod/PID/stat for coredumping") made an exception for coredumping thread, because for this case it is safe. The exception was later extended to all threads in a coredumping process by commit cb8f381f1613 ("fs/proc/array.c: allow reporting eip/esp for all coredumping threads"). The above two commits determine if a task is core dumping by checking the PF_EXITING and PF_DUMPCORE flags. However, commit 92307383082d ("coredump: Don't perform any cleanups before dumping core") moved coredump to happen earlier and before PF_EXITING is set. Thus, the check of the PF_EXITING flag no longer works. Instead, use task->signal->core_state to determine if coredump is happening. This pointer is set at the beginning of coredump and is cleared once coredump is done. Thus, while this pointer is not NULL, it is safe to read ESP.
