[PATCH] bpf: task_group_seq_get_next: cleanup the usage of next_thread()

[Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>]

1. find_pid_ns() + get_pid_task() under rcu_read_lock() guarantees that we
   can safely iterate the task->thread_group list. Even if this task exits
   right after get_pid_task() (or goto retry) and pid_alive() returns 0.

   Kill the unnecessary pid_alive() check.

2. next_thread() simply can't return NULL, kill the bogus "if (!next_task)"
   check.
