Bah, what an annoying nonsense. I see that this can be used to emulate
stuff like SI_TIMER and SI_ASYNCIO. But I very much doubt the value of
e.g., emulating SI_DETHREAD. Maybe I'm missing something very obvious.
In any case, thanks for keeping me honest:
So wouldn't be better of just writing this as?
if ((task_pid(current) != pid || type > PIDTYPE_TGID) &&
(kinfo.si_code >= 0 || kinfo.si_code == SI_TKILL))
goto err;
So that we don't have to repeat the same exercise if we extend this to
anything above PIDTYPE_PGID?
