Subject[PATCH] bpf: task_group_seq_get_next: cleanup the usage of next_thread()
1. find_pid_ns() + get_pid_task() under rcu_read_lock() guarantees that we
can safely iterate the task->thread_group list. Even if this task exits
right after get_pid_task() (or goto retry) and pid_alive() returns 0.

Kill the unnecessary pid_alive() check.

2. next_thread() simply can't return NULL, kill the bogus "if (!next_task)"
check.
