From bb8cbbfee68518796df4050868e5b0f5ad078f9f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2013 15:36:12 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] tasks/fork: Remove unnecessary child->exit_state A zombie task obviously can't fork(), remove the unnecessary initialization of child->exit_state. It is zero anyway after dup_task_struct(). Note: copy_process() is huge and it has a lot of chaotic initializations, probably it makes sense to move them into the new helper called by dup_task_struct().
