[PATCH] simplify exec from init's subthread
I think it is enough to take tasklist_lock for reading while changing
child_reaper:
Reparenting needs write_lock(tasklist_lock)
Only one thread in a thread group can do exec()
sighand->siglock garantees that get_signal_to_deliver()
will not see a stale value of child_reaper.
This means that we can change child_reaper earlier, without calling
zap_other_threads() twice.
"child_reaper = current" is a NOOP when init does exec from main thread, we
don't care.
