Heh. I thought this is obvious. I thought you can test 1-5 without 6/6
and _review_ 6/6.

I simply can't understand how can this pull/5580 come when I specially
mentioned

I think we can wait for

	https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230824143142.GA31222@redhat.com/

as you suggest above, then I'll send the s/next_thread/__next_thread/
oneliner without 1-5. I no longer think it makes sense to try to cleanup
the poor task_group_seq_get_next() when IMHO the whole task_iter logic
needs the complete rewrite. Yes, yes, I know, it is very easy to blame
someone else's code, sorry can't resist ;)

The only "fix" in this series is 3/6, but this code has more serious
bugs, so I guess we can forget it.

Oleg.
