SubjectRe: [PATCH] exit: trigger panic when init process is set to SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT
Hi,Oleg

Thanks for your replay.

My patch is for the following purpose:
1. I hope to fix the occurrence of unexpected panic
- [ 24.705390] kernel BUG at include/linux/pid_namespace.h:98!
This problem occurs when both two init threads enter the do_exit,
One of the init thread is syscall sys_exit_group,and set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT
The other init thread perform ret_to_user()->get_signal() and found
SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT is set,then do_group_exit()->do_exit()
Since there are no alive init threads it finally goes to
zap_pid_ns_processes() and BUG().
Timing details are in the changelog.

2. I hope to fix the problem that coredump cannot be parsed after init crash
Before my patch,ever init sub-thread will finish do_exit(),the last
thread will trigger panic().
Except for the thread that triggered the panic,the state(such as
PF_EXITING etc) of the other threads is already exiting,so we can't
parse coredump from fulldump
In fact, when any one init has been set to SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT, then we
can trigger panic,and prevent other init threads from continuing to
exit

When first init thread panic,i don't want other init threads to still
exit,this will destroy the state of other init threads.
so i use SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE to mark this stat,prevent other init
threads from continuing to exit
In addition i use siglock to protect tsk->signal->flags.
