X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=23196f2e5f5d810578a772785807dcdc2b9fdce9;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git kthread: Pin the stack via try_get_task_stack()/put_task_stack() in to_live_kthread() function get_task_struct(tsk) no longer pins tsk->stack so all users of to_live_kthread() should do try_get_task_stack/put_task_stack to protect "struct kthread" which lives on kthread's stack. TODO: Kill to_live_kthread(), perhaps we can even kill "struct kthread" too, and rework kthread_stop(), it can use task_work_add() to sync with the exiting kernel thread.
