[PATCH 1/1] signal: Introduce kill_pid_ns_info

[Daniel Hokka Zakrisson]

Author: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Implement the basic helper function that walks all of the processes in a
pid namespace and sends them all a signal.

Both locations that could use this functions are also updated to use this
function.

I use find_ge_pid instead of for_each_process because it has a chance of
not touching every process in the system.
