Subject: [PATCH -mm 3/3] exit: move taskstats_tgid_free() from __exit_signal() to free_signal_struct()
Date: Sun, 21 Mar 2010 19:47:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100321184757.GA29078@redhat.com> (raw)

Move taskstats_tgid_free() from __exit_signal() to free_signal_struct().

This way signal->stats never points to nowhere and we can read ->stats
lockless.
