Well, I need to think more.

SIGNAL_GROUP_DUMPING is not that simple. If we want to use it
in recalc_sigpending(), we can only set it after coredump_wait() succeeds.
And we need some changes in send_signal()->complete_signal() anyway, to make
sure SIGKILL does wakeup even if SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT.

Sorry for delay, will try to make patches soon ;)

Oleg.
