Subject: [PATCH 2/4] signal: do_signal_stop: remove the unneeded task_clear_group_stop_pending()
Date: Fri, 1 Apr 2011 20:12:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110401181216.GC9010@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110401181123.GA9010@redhat.com>

PF_EXITING or TASK_STOPPED has already called task_participate_group_stop()
and cleared its ->group_stop. No need to do task_clear_group_stop_pending()
when we start the new group stop.

Add a small comment to explain the !task_is_stopped() check. Note that this
check is not exactly right and it can lead to unnecessary stop later if the
thread is TASK_PTRACED. What we need is task_participated_in_group_stop(),
this will be solved later.
