Subject: Re: [PATCH] bpf: task_group_seq_get_next: cleanup the usage of
next_thread()
OK, it seems that you are not going to take these preparatory
cleanups ;)
I'll resend along with the s/next_thread/__next_thread/ change.
I was going to do the last change later, but this recent discussion
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230824143112.GA31208@redhat.com/
makes me think we should do this right now.
