[patch, for 2.6.29] x86, bts: remove bad warning

From: Markus Metzger
Date: Thu Mar 05 2009 - 02:50:20 EST


In case a ptraced task is reaped (while the tracer is still attached),
ds_exit_thread() is called before ptrace_exit(). The latter will
release the bts_tracer and remove the thread's ds_ctx.
The former will WARN() if the context is not NULL.

Oleg Nesterov submitted patches that move ptrace_exit() before
exit_thread() and thus reverse the order of the above calls.

Remove the bad warning. I will add it again when Oleg's changes are in.
