- * Accessing ->group_leader->real_parent is not SMP-safe, it could
- * change from under us. However, rather than getting any lock
- * we can use an optimistic algorithm: get the parent
- * pid, and go back and check that the parent is still
- * the same. If it has changed (which is extremely unlikely
- * indeed), we just try again..
- *
- * NOTE! This depends on the fact that even if we _do_
- * get an old value of "parent", we can happily dereference
- * the pointer (it was and remains a dereferencable kernel pointer
- * no matter what): we just can't necessarily trust the result
- * until we know that the parent pointer is valid.
- *
- * NOTE2: ->group_leader never changes from under us.
+ * Accessing ->real_parent is not SMP-safe, it could
