get_proc_task() can fail to search the task and return NULL,
put_task_struct() will then bomb the kernel with following oops:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at

Oops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
This is a regression introduced by commit
0499680a ("procfs: add hidepid=
and gid= mount options"). The kernel should return -ESRCH if
get_proc_task() failed.
