commit cee0c33c546a93957a52ae9ab6bebadbee765ec5 upstream.
b636fd38dc40 ("cgroup: Implement css_task_iter_skip()") introduced
css_task_iter_skip() which is used to fix task iterations skipping
dying threadgroup leaders with live threads. Skipping is implemented
as a subportion of full advancing but css_task_iter_next() forgot to
fully advance a skipped iterator before determining the next task to
visit causing it to return invalid task pointers.
Fix it by making css_task_iter_next() fully advance the iterator if it
has been skipped since the previous iteration.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
