[PATCH] latencytop: change /proc task_struct access method

[Hiroshi Shimamoto <h-shimamoto@ct.jp.nec.com>]

Hi Ingo,

Here is a delta patch against sched-devel.git tree.

These two patches in sched-devel.git tree fix the issues.
latencytop: fix kernel panic while reading latency proc file
latencytop: fix memory leak on latency proc file

However, this is more appropriate way to fix, I think.

Change getting task_struct by get_proc_task() at read or write time,
and returns -ESRCH if get_proc_task() returns NULL.
This is same behavior as other /proc files.
