task_get_live_kthread() looks confusing and unneeded. It does
get_task_struct() but only kthread_stop() needs this, it can be called
even if the calller doesn't have a reference when we know that this
kthread can't exit until we do kthread_stop().
kthread_park() and kthread_unpark() do not need get_task_struct(), the
callers already have the reference. And it can not help if we can race
with the exiting kthread anyway, kthread_park() can hang forever in this
case.
Change kthread_park() and kthread_unpark() to use to_live_kthread(),
change kthread_stop() to do get_task_struct() by hand and remove
task_get_live_kthread().
