[PATCH 1/3] procfs: Export next_tgid(), move it to kernel/pid.c

[Anton Vorontsov]

We'd like to use this function in the android low memory killer driver, so
let's export it.

Also, move next_tgid() to kernel/pid.c, so now it lives with the rest of
pid library functions and does not depend on procfs. Plus, we may now hide
find_ge_pid() from the global namespace.

While at it, also turn next_tgid()'s comments into kerneldoc format.

There should be no functional changes.
