[PATCH 4.9 010/109] s390/runtime instrumentation: simplify task exit handling

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Dec 07 2017 - 09:13:18 EST


4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8d9047f8b967ce6181fd824ae922978e1b055cc0 upstream.

Free data structures required for runtime instrumentation from
arch_release_task_struct(). This allows to simplify the code a bit,
and also makes the semantics a bit easier: arch_release_task_struct()
is never called from the task that is being removed.

In addition this allows to get rid of exit_thread() in a later patch.
