Subject: [PATCH 3/3] tty: Move task_pgrp() after tty->ctrl.lock for consistency
Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2023 18:50:31 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230901015030.2469062-4-earl.chew@yahoo.ca> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230831143645.2298799-1-earl_chew@yahoo.com>

Refactor __tty_check_change_locked() for consistency
with __proc_set_tty() which calls task_pgrp() after
tty->ctrl.lock is acquired.

In addition, spin_lock_irqsave() can block, while
task_pgrp() cannot block. Fetching the process
group immediately before it is used reduces the
window for inconsistency, and improves clarity.
