-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.
