Biederman Date: Mon, 22 Nov 2021 15:51:03 +0000 (-0600) Subject: exit: Stop poorly open coding do_task_dead in make_task_dead X-Git-Tag: v6.1-rc5~2203^2~37 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7f80a2fd7db9a55894fd841915236aca611291b5;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-starfive.git exit: Stop poorly open coding do_task_dead in make_task_dead When the kernel detects it is oops or otherwise force killing a task while it exits the code poorly attempts to permanently stop the task from scheduling. I say poorly because it is possible for a task in TASK_UINTERRUPTIBLE to be woken up. As it makes no sense for the task to continue call do_task_dead instead which actually does the work and permanently removes the task from the scheduler. Guaranteeing the task will never be woken up again. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
