Now that we do not check __state = __TASK_TRACED, we need lock_task_sighand().
The tracee can be already woken up by ptrace_resume(), but it is possible that
it didn't clear DELAY_WAKEKILL yet.

Now, before we take ->siglock, the tracee can exit and another thread can do
wait() and reap this task.

Also, I think the comment above should be updated. I agree, it makes sense to
re-check JOBCTL_DELAY_WAKEKILL under siglock just for clarity, but we no longer
need to do this to close the race; jobctl &= ~JOBCTL_DELAY_WAKEKILL and
wake_up_state() are safe even if JOBCTL_DELAY_WAKEKILL was already cleared.

minor, but

        current->jobctl &= ~(JOBCTL_LISTENING | JOBCTL_DELAY_WAKEKILL);

looks better.
