And _this_ is why I'd reall ylike that "for_each_mm()" helper.
Yeah, yeah, maybe it would require syntax like
for_each_mm (tsk, mm) {
...
} end_for_each_mm(mm);
to do variable allocation things or cleanups (ie "end_for_each_mm()"
might drop the task lock etc), but wouldn't that still be better than
this complex boilerplate thing?
