The checks for the scan time in task_mm_cid_work are now superfluous since the task runs in a delayed_work and the minimum periodicity is already implied.
This patch removes those checks and the field from the mm_struct.
Additionally, we include a simple check to quickly terminate the function if we have no work to be done (i.e. no mm_cid is allocated). This is helpful for tasks that sleep for a long time, but also for terminated task. We are no longer following the process' state, hence the function continues to run after a process terminates but before its mm is freed.
