Subject: [PATCH 108/342] kernel/sched: move stack + kprobe clean up to
 __put_task_struct()
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git/commit?id=3dd0ebab3223ff2fcf7a12a1ee3bf1ad46d17b85

There is no need to free the stack before the task struct (except for reasons
mentioned in commit 68f24b08ee89 ("sched/core: Free the stack early if
CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK")). This also comes handy on -RT because we can't
free memory in preempt disabled region.

Cc: stable-rt@vger.kernel.org #for kprobe_flush_task()
