applied to tip/core/urgent, thanks!

note that i've done two small tweaks to the patch:

 - added curly braces to the else branch as well - the convention is

 - added KERN_CONT for the printk

When we failed to get tasklist_lock eventually (count equals 0),
we should only print " ignoring it.\n", and not print
" locked it.\n" needlessly.
