Hi,
In order to be able to safely manipulate a task_struct from within a
module one should use get/put_task_struct. This is currently not
possible because __put_task_struct is not exported. Next patch solves
this issue.
Frank.

Hi,
In order to be able to safely manipulate a task_struct (!= current) from
within a module one should use get/put_task_struct. This is currently
not possible because __put_task_struct is not exported. Next patch
solves this issue. Please apply.
