This patch reworks kthread_stop so it is more flexible and it causes
the target kthread to abort interruptible sleeps. Allowing a larger
class of kernel threads to use to the kthread API.
The changes start by defining TIF_KTHREAD_STOP on all architectures.
TIF_KTHREAD_STOP is a per process flag that I can set from another
process to indicate that a kernel thread should stop.
wake_up_process in kthread_stop has been replaced by signal_wake_up
ensuring that the kernel thread if sleeping is woken up in a timely
manner and with TIF_SIGNAL_PENDING set, which causes us to break out
of interruptible sleeps.
recalc_signal_pending was modified to keep TIF_SIGNAL_PENDING set for
as long as TIF_KTHREAD_STOP is set.
Arbitrary paths to do_exit are now allowed. I have placed a
completion on the thread stack and pointed vfork_done at it, when the
mm_release is called from do_exit the completion will be called.
Since the completion is stored on the stack it is important that
kthread() now calls do_exit ensuring the stack frame that holds the
completion is never released, and so that our exit_code is certain to
make it unchanged all the way to do_exit.
To allow kthread_stop to read the process exit code when exit_mm wakes
it up I have moved the setting of exit_code to the beginning of
do_exit.
