Subject: stacktrace: Use PF_KTHREAD to check for kernel threads
X-Git-Tag: v5.3-rc1~137^2
X-Git-Url: https://www.infradead.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7e8e6816c6495a1168f9a7a50125d82c23e59300;p=users%2Fwilly%2Flinux.git

stacktrace: Use PF_KTHREAD to check for kernel threads

!current->mm is not a reliable indicator for kernel threads as they might
temporarily use a user mm. Check for PF_KTHREAD instead.
