[PATCH] get/put_task_struct

From: Frank Cornelis
Date: Mon Aug 11 2003 - 04:48:21 EST


Hi,

In order to be able to safely manipulate a task_struct (!= current) from
within a module one should use get/put_task_struct. This is currently
not possible because __put_task_struct is not exported. Next patch
solves this issue. Please apply.

Frank.
