In current bpf_send_signal() and bpf_send_signal_thread() helper
implementation, irq_work is used to handle nmi context. Hao Sun
reported in [1] that the current task at the entry of the helper
might be gone during irq_work callback processing. To fix the issue,
a reference is acquired for the current task before enqueuing into
the irq_work so that the queued task is still available during
irq_work callback processing.

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.
