Subject: ptrace: don't take tasklist to get/set ->last_siginfo
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e49612544c695117644af48bb4625264a3d2918f;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git

ptrace: don't take tasklist to get/set ->last_siginfo

Change ptrace_getsiginfo/ptrace_setsiginfo to use lock_task_sighand()
without tasklist_lock.  Perhaps it makes sense to make a single helper
with "bool rw" argument.
