yes, sorry,

I meant

	struct task_struct *next_task_lock_mm(struct task_struct *p)
	{
		struct task_struct *t;

		if (p) {
			task_unlock(p);
			p = p->group_leader;
		} else {
			p = &init_task;
		}

		while ((p = next_task(p)) != &init_task) {
			if (p->flags & PF_KTHREAD)
				continue;

			t = find_lock_task_mm(p);
			if (t)
				return t;
		}

		return NULL;
	}

	#define for_each_task_lock_mm(p)
		for (p = NULL; (p = next_task_lock_mm(p)); )
