From 85868995d9d82de5b0de38d695559daddffef893 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu Date: Thu, 10 May 2007 22:23:03 -0700 Subject: Use struct pid parameter in copy_process() Modify copy_process() to take a struct pid * parameter instead of a pid_t. This simplifies the code a bit and also avoids having to call find_pid() to convert the pid_t to a struct pid. Changelog: - Fixed Badari Pulavarty's comments and passed in &init_struct_pid from fork_idle(). - Fixed Eric Biederman's comments and simplified this patch and used a new patch to remove the likely(pid) check.
