The aim of this patch set is to start wrapping up the struct pid
conversions.  As such this patchset culminates with the removal
of kill_pg, kill_pg_info, __kill_pg_info, do_each_task_pid, and
while_each_task_pid.

kill_proc, daemonize, and kernel_thread are still in my sights but
there is still work to get to them.


The first three are basic cleanups around disassociate_ctty,
while working on converting it I found several issues.  tty_old_pgrp
can be a tricky concept to wrap your head around.

 1 tty: Make __proc_set_tty static.
 2 tty: Clarify disassociate_ctty
 3 tty: Fix the locking for signal->session in disassociate_ctty

These just stop using the old helper functions.

 4 signal: Use kill_pgrp not kill_pg in the sunos compatibility code.
 5 signal: Rewrite kill_something_info so it uses newer helpers.

Then the grind to convert the tty layer and all of it's helper
functions to struct pid.

 6 pid: Make session_of_pgrp use struct pid instead of pid_t.
 7 pid: Use struct pid for talking about process groups in exit.c
 8 pid: Replace is_orphaned_pgrp with is_current_pgrp_orphaned
 9 tty: Update the tty layer to work with struct pid.

A final helper function update.

10 pid: Replace do/while_each_task_pid with do/while_each_pid_task

And the removal of the functions that are now unused.
11 pid: Remove now unused do_each_task_pid and while_each_task_pid
12 pid: Remove the now unused kill_pg kill_pg_info and __kill_pg_info

All of these should be fairly simple and to the point.

Currently all users of __proc_set_tty are in tty_io.c so
make the function static.

The code to look at tty_old_pgrp and send SIGHUP and SIGCONT
when it is present only executes when disassociate_ctty is
called from do_exit.  Make this clear by adding an explict
on_exit check, and explicitly setting tty_old_pgrp to 0.

In addition fix the locking by reading tty_old_pgrp under
the siglock.

commit 24ec839c431eb79bb8f6abc00c4e1eb3b8c4d517 while fixing
the locking for signal->tty got the locking wrong for
signal->session.  This places our accesses of signal->session
back under the tasklist_lock where they belong.

I am slowly moving to a model where all process killing
is struct pid based instead of pid_t based.   The sunos
compatibility code is one of the last users of the old pid_t
based kill_pg in the kernel.  By being complete I allow
for the future removal of kill_pg from the kernel, which
will ensure I don't miss something.

To properly implement a pid namespace I need to deal exclusively
in terms of struct pid, because pid_t values become ambiguous.

To this end session_of_pgrp is transformed to take and return
a struct pid pointer.  To avoid the need to worry about reference
counting I now require my caller to hold the appropriate locks.
Leaving callers repsonsible for increasing the reference count
if they need access to the result outside of the locks.

Since session_of_pgrp currently only has one caller and that
caller simply uses only test the result for equality with
another process group, the locking change means I don't
actually have to acquire the tasklist_lock at all.

tiocspgrp is also modified to take and release the lock.  The logic
there is a little more complicated but nothing I won't need when I
convert pgrp of a tty to a struct pid pointer.

Every call to is_orphaned_pgrp passed in process_group(current)
which is racy with respect to another thread changing our process
group.  It didn't bite us because we were dealing with integers
and the worse we would get would be a stale answer.

In switching the checks to use struct pid to be a little more
efficient and prepare the way for pid namespaces this
race became apparent.

So I simplified the calls to the more specialized is_current_pgrp_orphaned
so I didn't have to worry about making logic changes to avoid the race.

Of kernel subsystems that work with pids the tty layer
is probably the largest consumer.  But it has the nice
virtue that the assiation with a session only lasts until
the session leader exits.  Which means that no reference
counting is required.  So using struct pid winds up
being a simple optimization to avoid hash table lookups.

In the long term the use of pid_nr also ensures that
when we have multiple pid spaces mixed everything will
work correctly.

There isn't any real advantage to this change except that
it allows the old functions to be removed.  Which is easier
on maintenance and puts the code in a more uniform style.

Now that I have changed all of the users remove the old version of these
functions.  This should be a clear hint to any out of tree users
that they should use do_each_pid_task and while_each_pid_task for
new code.

Now that I have changed all of the in-tree users remove the old
version of these  functions.  This should make it clear to any
out of tree users that they should be using kill_pgrp kill_pgrp_info
or __kill_pgrp_info instead.

hm, it touches a lot of tricky code which few people are familar
with.  Worried.

Reasonable concern.  The good thing is that the only big change was that
struct pid is reference counted while old style pids are not.  Which
means that most of the pieces are simple substitutions.  Although I admit
checking that the reference is correct especially in the tty layer
is tricky.
