The only caller of exit_sighand(tsk) is copy_process's error path. We can call __exit_sighand() directly and kill exit_sighand(). This 'tsk' was not yet registered in pid_hash[] or init_task.tasks, it has no external references, nobody can see it, and IF (clone_flags & CLONE_SIGHAND) At least 'current' has a reference to ->sighand, this means atomic_dec_and_test(sighand->count) can't be true. ELSE Nobody can see this ->sighand, this means we can free it without any locking. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Cc: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Acked-by: "Paul E.
