In 3.6 from_kuid_munged should be only be expanded to the inline noop
version.

The code you quote does not exist in kernel/exit.c in wait_task_zombie
and has not existed in wait_task_zombie in Linus's tree. So since I
can't see the code I can't help.

I suspect the bug relates to your local modifications.
