Subject: [PATCH 2/2] block: fix ioprio_get/set(IOPRIO_WHO_PGRP) vs setuid(2)

do_each_pid_thread(PIDTYPE_PGID) can race with a concurrent
change_pid(PIDTYPE_PGID) that can move the task from one hlist
to another while iterating. Serialize ioprio_get/set to take
the tasklist_lock in this case.

Fixes: d69b78ba1de (ioprio: grab rcu_read_lock in sys_ioprio_{set,get}())
