Subject: [PATCH] block: fix ioprio_get(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 to take
the tasklist_lock in this case, just like it's set counterpart.

Fixes: d69b78ba1de (ioprio: grab rcu_read_lock in sys_ioprio_{set,get}())
Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@...hat.com>

This is basically a resend of https://lore.kernel.org/all/20200817003148.23691-3-dave@stgolabs.net/
with Oleg's ack and without the ioprio_set part as this was fixed
later after this patch was lost for whatever reason.
