188What: remove EXPORT_SYMBOL(tasklist_lock)
189When: August 2006
190Files: kernel/fork.c
191Why: tasklist_lock protects the kernel internal task list. Modules have
192 no business looking at it, and all instances in drivers have been due
193 to use of too-lowlevel APIs. Having this symbol exported prevents
194 moving to more scalable locking schemes for the task list.
