Yes. If no one registers to listen on a particular CPU, data from tasks
exiting on that cpu is not sent out at all.

During task exit, kernel goes through each registered listener (small 
list) and decides which
one needs to get this exit data and calls a genetlink_unicast to each 
one that does need it.


Are we eliminating multicast taskstats data at exit time? 
Yes. Only unicasts to each listener now.
A unicast
exit data with cpumask will do for me, but just like to be sure where
we are.
