exit: Guarantee make_task_dead leaks the tsk when calling do_task_exit
Change the task state to EXIT_DEAD and take an extra rcu_refernce to guarantee the task will not be reaped and that it will not be freed. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/YdUzjrLAlRiNLQp2@zeniv-ca.linux.org.uk Pointed-out-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Fixes: 7f80a2fd7db9 ("exit: Stop poorly open coding do_task_dead in make_task_dead") Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
