---------------------------
-What: find_task_by_pid
-When: 2.6.26
-Why: With pid namespaces, calling this funciton will return the
- wrong task when called from inside a namespace.
-
- The best way to save a task pid and find a task by this
- pid later, is to find this task's struct pid pointer (or get
- it directly from the task) and call pid_task() later.
-
- If someone really needs to get a task by its pid_t, then
- he most likely needs the find_task_by_vpid() to get the
- task from the same namespace as the current task is in, but
- this may be not so in general.

What: ACPI procfs interface
When: July 2008
