[ Upstream commit 6954e41526 ]
Instead of having the logic that does trace_pid_list open coded, wrap it in
abstract functions. This will allow a rewrite of the logic that implements
the trace_pid_list without affecting the users.
Note, this causes a change in behavior. Every time a pid is written into
the set_*_pid file, it creates a new list and uses RCU to update it. If
pid_max is lowered, but there was a pid currently in the list that was
higher than pid_max, those pids will now be removed on updating the list.
The old behavior kept that from happening.
The rewrite of the pid_list logic will no longer depend on pid_max,
and will return the old behavior.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
