It will allow to maintain kthreads more easily and make the operations more reliable. The kthread function is split into optional init(), func(), destroy() parts where func() is called in a cycle. The common check point is after each func() function finishes. See kthread_iterant_fn() for more details. This patch removes the wait_to_die() cycle. Instead it uses the main cycle and func() does nothing in the kill_test state. The threads are not safe for freezing because there is used schedule() without try_to_freeze() inside the kthread. Let's fix it in separate patch. In the meantime, we need to disable it explicitly in the init() function. Consumer does not need to call schedule in func(). Instead, it sets KTI_INT_SLEEP type and lets the kthread iterant framework to do the sleep between iterations. On the other hand, the producer still need to implement the sleeping in func() because the iterant kthread framework does not support this type of sleep. But the plan is to make it possible later.
