Re: [PATCH] proc-readdir-race-fix-take-3-fix-3

Ok.  While we are on the topic of races in readdir in /proc.
I just wanted to note that I believe thread groups have the same

I don't think it is severe enough to cause any real world problems.

But it makes sense to note it.

Something to think about.
