Oleg Nesterov f63ee72e0f [PATCH] introduce lock_task_sighand() helper
Add lock_task_sighand() helper and converts group_send_sig_info() to use
it.  Hopefully we will have more users soon.

This patch also removes '!sighand->count' and '!p->usage' checks, I think
they both are bogus, racy and unneeded (but probably it makes sense to
restore them as BUG_ON()s).

->sighand is cleared and it's ->count is decremented in release_task() with
sighand->siglock held, so it is a bug to have '!p->usage || !->count' after
we already locked and verified it is the same.  On the other hand, an
already dead task without ->sighand can have a non-zero ->usage due to
ptrace, for example.

If we read the stale value of ->sighand we must see the change after
spin_lock(), because that change was done while holding that same old
->sighand.siglock.
