> One may not call task_pid_vnr() on dead tasks because they don't have
> a valid ->nxproxy pointer. However, the ckpt_ctx cleanup may be called
> by a dead task from do_exit(), in the case of zombie or "ghost" tasks.
> 
> This patch makes ckpt_debug() safe to call from dead tasks context, so
> that debug printing from code called by ckpt_ctx_free() is cool.
