Oleg Nesterov 1291cf4163 [PATCH] fix de_thread() vs do_coredump() deadlock ...

de_thread() sends SIGKILL to all sub-threads and waits them to die in 'D'
state.  It is possible that one of the threads already dequeued coredump
signal.  When de_thread() unlocks ->sighand->lock that thread can enter
do_coredump()->coredump_wait() and cause a deadlock.
