Smatch complains about this:

	kernel/exit.c:543 forget_original_parent()
	warn: add some parenthesis here?

I don't normally advocate changing the code to make the static checker
happy but these are normally precedence bugs so I think it's ok to put
parenthesis so it's clear the code is deliberate.

I still think that "if (!A = B)" doesn't look as a potential precedence
bug, but I won't argue.

Andrew, this fixes   exit-reparent-cleanup-the-changing-of-parent.patch
in -mm tree.
