This patch updates UML to 2.5.52. As far as UML itself is concerned, this
is identical to all recent 2.5 UML releases.
The file corruption that I saw with the 2.5.50 UML seems to be gone; however
Oleg Drokin is maintaining his own 2.5 UML repo, with forward ports of my 2.4
updates, and he's reporting corruption with his 2.5.52. I've exercised this
patch with kernel builds and various other loads and seen no problem, so it's
possible the problem is in his pool and not mine - however, caveat user.
The 2.5.52 UML patch is available at
http://uml-pub.ists.dartmouth.edu/uml/uml-patch-2.5.52-1.bz2
For the other UML mirrors and other downloads, see

I have a pending patch against your tree. Could you review this, and if
it pass, include it in your tree?
Thanks,
Bill
get_task() really wants to do find_task_by_pid().
This calls find_task_by_pid() directly.

It doesn't require much review. It's fine, of course.
