[PATCH] sys_setpgid: eliminate unnecessary do_each_task_pid(PIDTYPE_PGID)

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Mon Oct 23 2006 - 13:52:51 EST


On top of add-process_session-helper-routine.patch

All tasks in the process group have the same sid, we don't need to iterate
them all to check that the caller of sys_setpgid() doesn't change its session.
