Tejun Heo 74d0833c65 cgroup: fix css_task_iter crash on CSS_TASK_ITER_PROC
While teaching css_task_iter to handle skipping over tasks which
aren't group leaders, bc2fb7ed08 ("cgroup: add @flags to
css_task_iter_start() and implement CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS") introduced a
silly bug.

CSS_TASK_ITER_PROCS is implemented by repeating
css_task_iter_advance() while the advanced cursor is pointing to a
non-leader thread.  However, the cursor variable, @l, wasn't updated
when the iteration has to advance to the next css_set and the
following repetition would operate on the terminal @l from the
previous iteration which isn't pointing to a valid task leading to
oopses like the following or infinite looping.

Fix it by moving the initialization of the cursor below the repeat
label.  While at it, rename it to @next for readability.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
