Subject: [PATCH 1/4] ptrace: kill __ptrace_detach(), fix ->exit_state check
Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2009 05:29:14 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090129042913.GA5100@redhat.com> (raw)

Move the code from __ptrace_detach() to its single caller and kill this
helper.

Also, fix the ->exit_state check, we shouldn't wake up EXIT_DEAD tasks.
Actually, I think task_is_stopped_or_traced() makes more sense, but this
needs another patch.
