The patch titled Fix tsk->exit_state usage has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is fix-tsk-exit_state-usage-resend.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Fix tsk->exit_state usage From: Eugene Teo <eugeneteo@xxxxxxxxx> tsk->exit_state can only be 0, EXIT_ZOMBIE, or EXIT_DEAD. A non-zero test is the same as tsk->exit_state & (EXIT_ZOMBIE | EXIT_DEAD), so just testing tsk->exit_state is sufficient.
