Oh, right. this is true. Otherwise, we cannot use task ptr in the helper.

Sorry. I think you are right. Not sure lsm requirement. There are two
more possible ways to check task is exiting which happens before 
__put_task_struct():
   . check task->exit_state
   . check task->flags & PF_EXITING (used in bpf_trace.c)

Not sure which condition is the correct one to check.
