[PATCH] copy_process: cosmetic ->ioprio tweak
copy_process:
// holds tasklist_lock + ->siglock
/*
* inherit ioprio
*/
p->ioprio = current->ioprio;
Why? ->ioprio was already copied in dup_task_struct(). I guess this is
needed to ensure that the child can't escape
sys_ioprio_set(IOPRIO_WHO_{PGRP,USER}), yes?
In that case we don't need ->siglock held, and the comment should be
updated.
