Oleg Nesterov 9133607de3 exit: fix the usage of delay_group_leader->exit_code in do_notify_parent() and pidfs_exit() ...

Consider a process with a group leader L and a sub-thread T.
L does sys_exit(1), then T does sys_exit_group(2).

In this case wait_task_zombie(L) will notice SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT and use
L->signal->group_exit_code, this is correct.

But, before that, do_notify_parent(L) called by release_task(T) will use
L->exit_code != L->signal->group_exit_code, and this is not consistent.
We don't really care, I think that nobody relies on the info which comes
with SIGCHLD, if nothing else SIGCHLD < SIGRTMIN can be queued only once.

But pidfs_exit() is more problematic, I think pidfs_exit_info->exit_code
should report ->group_exit_code in this case, just like wait_task_zombie().

TODO: with this change we can hopefully cleanup (or may be even kill) the
similar SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT checks, at least in wait_task_zombie().
