commit b636fd38dc40113f853337a7d2a6885ad23b8811 upstream.
When a task is moved out of a cset, task iterators pointing to the task are advanced using the normal css_task_iter_advance() call. This is fine but we'll be tracking dying tasks on csets and thus moving tasks from cset->tasks to (to be added) cset->dying_tasks. When we remove a task from cset->tasks, if we advance the iterators, they may move over to the next cset before we had the chance to add the task back on the dying list, which can allow the task to escape iteration.
This patch separates out skipping from advancing. Skipping only moves the affected iterators to the next pointer rather than fully advancing it and the following advancing will recognize that the cursor has already been moved forward and do the rest of advancing. This ensures that when a task moves from one list to another in its cset, as long as it moves in the right direction, it's always visible to iteration.
This doesn't cause any visible behavior changes.
