ptrace_get_task_struct: s/tasklist/rcu/, make it static
- Use rcu_read_lock() instead of tasklist_lock to find/get the task
in ptrace_get_task_struct().
- Make it static, it has no callers outside of ptrace.c.
- The comment doesn't match the reality, this helper does not do
any checks. Beacuse it is really trivial and static I removed the
whole comment.
