Commit
4221a9918e38b7494cee341dda7b7b4bb8c04bde "Add RCU check for
find_task_by_vpid()" introduced rcu_lockdep_assert to find_task_by_pid_ns=
Assertion failed in sys_ioprio_get. The patch is fixing assertion
failure in ioprio_set as well.
kernel/pid.c:419 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!
