sched: update comment for move_task_off_dead_cpu
Impact: cleanup This commit: commit f7b4cddcc5aca03e80e357360c9424dfba5056c2 Author: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Date: Tue Oct 16 23:30:56 2007 -0700 do CPU_DEAD migrating under read_lock(tasklist) instead of write_lock_irq(ta Currently move_task_off_dead_cpu() is called under write_lock_irq(tasklist). This means it can't use task_lock() which is needed to improve migrating to take task's ->cpuset into account. Change the code to call move_task_off_dead_cpu() with irqs enabled, and change migrate_live_tasks() to use read_lock(tasklist). ...forgot to update the comment in front of move_task_off_dead_cpu.
