Subject: [PATCH 11/20] ptrace: Collapse ptrace_untrace() into __ptrace_unlink()
Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2011 11:05:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1300874766-12941-12-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1300874766-12941-1-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org>

Remove the extra task_is_traced() check in __ptrace_unlink() and
collapse ptrace_untrace() into __ptrace_unlink().  This is to prepare
for further changes.

While at it, drop the comment on top of ptrace_untrace() and convert
__ptrace_unlink() comment to docbook format.  Detailed comment will be
added by the next patch.

This patch doesn't cause any visible behavior changes.
