[PATCH -mm] simplify pid iterators

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Thu Aug 17 2006 - 12:50:00 EST


On top of Eric's recent include/linux/pid.h changes.

I think it is hardly possible to read the current do_each_task_pid().
The new version is much simpler and makes the code smaller.

Only the do_each_task_pid change is tested, the do_each_pid_task isn't.
Eric, could you take a hard look at this patch?
