Oleg Nesterov ed5d2cac11 exec: rework the group exit and fix the race with kill
As Roland pointed out, we have the very old problem with exec.  de_thread()
sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, kills other threads, changes ->group_leader and then
clears signal->flags.  All signals (even fatal ones) sent in this window
(which is not too small) will be lost.

With this patch exec doesn't abuse SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT.  signal_group_exit(),
the new helper, should be used to detect exit_group() or exec() in progress.
It can have more users, but this patch does only strictly necessary changes.
