Description
I just got a NULL pointer access in team_get_controlling_tty(). Unfortunately, I didn't have any time to look into it, ie. I don't know if the team's group or the group's session pointer was NULL.
In any case, the bug appeared at the end of a gdb session.
Ingo, maybe you remember a bit how your session/group implementation is supposed to work? I've assigned you the bug for now.

Just ran into it again. This time I had the pleasure being able to look into it ;-)
Anyway, the team's group member is already NULL. What happens is that the team is already destructed while its threads aren't yet.
I've attached a short test program that one can use to reproduce the issue 100%: when run it launches another thread and waits for user input. Then you have to attach GDB to that second thread, and quit GDB. Say welcome to KDL.

This isn't possibly related to the recent thread_do_exit_work() changes is it?

Even if it is, that wouldn't matter, as this is definitely a kernel bug that deserves to be fixed.
