[Devel] [PATCH 3/12] Use find_task_by_vpid in taskstats

The pid to lookup a task by is passed inside taskstats code
via genetlink message.

Since netlink packets are now processed in the context of the
sending task, this is correct to lookup the task with 
find_task_by_vpid() here.

Besides, I fix the call to fill_pid() from taskstats_exit(),
since the tsk->pid is not required in fill_pid() in this case,
and the pid field on task_struct is going to be deprecated
as well.
