Subject: [PATCH -mm 1/2] rename is_single_threaded(task) to is_current_single_threaded(void)
Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2009 23:28:47 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090709212847.GA10238@redhat.com> (raw)

(on top of rework-fix-is_single_threaded.patch)

- is_single_threaded(task) is not safe unless task == current,
  we can't use task->signal or task->mm.

- it doesn't make sense unless task == current, the task can
  fork right after the check.

Rename it to is_current_single_threaded() and kill the argument.
