[PATCH 1/2] change thread_group_empty() to use task_struct->thread_node
From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Sat Aug 26 2023 - 07:16:41 EST
It could use list_is_singular() but this way it is cheaper. Plus the
thread_group_leader() check makes it clear that thread_group_empty()
can only return true if p is a group leader. This was not immediately
obvious before this patch.
task_struct->thread_group no longer has users, it can die.
