kthread: Don't looking for a task in create_kthread() #2
Remove the unnecessary find_task_by_pid_ns(). kthread() can just use "current" to get the same result. Signed-off-by: Vitaliy Gusev <vgusev@openvz.org> Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
