[PATCH 01/01][RFC] Move Exit Connectors

From: Matt Helsley
Date: Thu Jan 05 2006 - 14:19:57 EST


This patch moves the process event connector exit function above
exit_mm() with the expectation that it will later be removed from the
exit function with other calls that need to take place before exit_mm().

I'm looking into how this affects the exit_signal field. Please review
but do not apply.
