NAME
       task_set_jobctl_pending - set jobctl pending bits

SYNOPSIS
       bool task_set_jobctl_pending(struct task_struct * task, unsigned long mask);

ARGUMENTS
       task
           target task

       mask
           pending bits to set

DESCRIPTION
       Clear mask from task->jobctl.  mask must be subset of JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK |
       JOBCTL_STOP_CONSUME | JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK | JOBCTL_TRAPPING. If stop signo is being set,
       the existing signo is cleared. If task is already being killed or exiting, this function
       becomes noop.

CONTEXT
