Subject: [PATCH] audit: cleanup prune_tree_thread
Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2016 10:49:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1459414168-5010-1-git-send-email-jslaby@suse.cz> (raw)

We can use kthread_run instead of kthread_create+wake_up_process for
creating the thread.

We do not need to set the task state to TASK_RUNNING after schedule(),
the process is in that state already.

And we do not need to set the state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE when not
doing schedule() as we set the state to TASK_RUNNING immediately
afterwards.
