For -stable, I think it's better to revert.  If you want to remove
task_lock, let's do it for 3.8.
I don't think that a wrong comment justifies a patch to stable.
I'm not really sure whether it's safe or not.  It seems all usages are
protected by write locking css_set_lock but maybe I'm missing
something and as the commit is born out of confusion, I'm very
inclined to revert it by default.  Are you sure this one is safe?

Thanks.
