Subject: [PATCH 7/8] do not change dead_task->exit_signal
Date: Wed, 22 Jun 2011 23:10:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110622211011.GH20549@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110622210757.GA20549@redhat.com>

__ptrace_detach() and do_notify_parent() set task->exit_signal = -1
to mark the task dead. This is no longer needed, nobody checks
exit_signal to detect the EXIT_DEAD task.
