This ordering is a little weird to me, I think we would eliminate the 
majority of processes by checking for p->mm != mm first.  There are 
certainly pathological cases where that can be defeated, but in practice 
it seems to happen more often than not.

Unless you object, I think the ordering should be p->mm != mm, 
same_thread_group(), unlikely(PF_KTHREAD) as it originally was (thanks for 
adding the unlikely).

I agree your cleanup looks much better than the nested conditional.
