------------------------------------------------------
Subject: taskstats: add_del_listener() shouldn't use the wrong node
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>

1. 26c4caea "don't allow duplicate entries in listener mode"
   changed add_del_listener(REGISTER) so that "next_cpu:" can
   reuse the listener allocated for the previous cpu, this
   doesn't look exactly right even if minor.

   Change the code to kfree() in the already-registered case,
   this case is unlikely anyway so the extra kmalloc_node()
   shouldn't hurt but looke more correct and clean.

2. use the plain list_for_each_entry() instead of _safe() to
   scan listeners->list.

3. Remove the unneeded INIT_LIST_HEAD(&s->list), we are going
   to list_add(&s->list).
