send_sig is thread only making it the wrong command for an action
directed at a process.
force_sig does not set SEND_SIG_FORCED (causing unnecessary work in
__send_signal) and jumps through unnecessary hoops to deal
with blocked and ignored signals which SIGKILL can never be.
Therefore use do_send_sig_info in all cases in __do_SAK to kill
tasks as allows for exactly what the code wants to do.
