Therefor the chain walk code is changed to get rid of the references to current to avoid false positives in the deadlock detector, as setscheduler might be called by a task which holds the lock on which the task whose priority is changed is blocked. Also add some comments about the get/put_task_struct usage to avoid confusion.
