To avoid pid rollover confusion the kernel needs to work with struct pid * instead of pid_t. Currently there is not an iterator that walks through all of the tasks of a given pid type starting with a struct pid. This prevents us replacing some pid_t instances with struct pid. So this patch adds do_each_pid_task which walks through the set of task for a given pid type starting with a struct pid.
