From 0bf676d1fd5144e66ac06939fa3c7c12086c3b18 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Slaby Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2016 10:49:28 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] audit: cleanup prune_tree_thread We can use kthread_run instead of kthread_create+wake_up_process for creating the thread. We do not need to set the task state to TASK_RUNNING after schedule(), the process is in that state already. And we do not need to set the state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE when not doing schedule() as we set the state to TASK_RUNNING immediately afterwards.
