[Devel] [PATCH] c/r: make ckpt_debug() safe if called by dead tasks

From: Oren Laadan <orenl at cs.columbia.edu>

One may not call task_pid_vnr() on dead tasks because they don't have
a valid ->nxproxy pointer. However, the ckpt_ctx cleanup may be called
by a dead task from do_exit(), in the case of zombie or "ghost" tasks.

This patch makes ckpt_debug() safe to call from dead tasks context, so
that debug printing from code called by ckpt_ctx_free() is cool.
