Lockless use of next_thread() should be avoided, kernel/bpf/task_iter.c
is the last user and the usage is wrong.

bpf_iter_task_next() can loop forever, "kit->pos == kit->task" can never
happen if kit->pos execs. Change this code to use __next_thread().

With or without this change the usage of kit->pos/task and next_task()
doesn't look nice, see the next patch.
