Basically we are attempting a read_lock(&tasklist_lock) in
container_task_count() after taking write_lock_irq(&tasklist_lock) in
update_nodemask()!

Paul, is there any reason why we need to do a write_lock() on
tasklist_lock if we're just trying to block fork, or is it just
historical accident? Wouldn't it be fine to do a read_lock()?
