From 3cec556a84be02bcd8755422eec61f1b9bee4e2f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2006 00:35:10 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] n_r3964: Use struct pid to track user space clients Currently this driver tracks user space clients it should send signals to. In the presenct of file descriptor passing this is appears susceptible to confusion from pid wrap around issues. Replacing this with a struct pid prevents us from getting confused, and prepares for a pid namespace implementation. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
