Well. OK, please see 1/1 (compile tested only).

But I still like the patch from Tejun more... Except _perhaps_ my
patch is better for 3.9 just because it is simpler.

And. I still think that probably we can avoid thread_group_leader()
recheck-and-restart logic in attach_task_by_pid(). But even if this
is true (and thus we can revert the changes in de_thread), we should
do this on top of Tejun's patch.

Oleg.
