[PATCH 2/2] ptrace: ensure JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK is not zero afterdetach

[Oleg Nesterov]

This is the temporary simple fix for 3.2, we need more changes in this
area.

1. do_signal_stop() assumes that the running untraced thread in the
   stopped thread group is not possible. This was our goal but it is
   not yet achieved: a stopped-but-resumed tracee can clone the running
   thread which can initiate another group-stop.

   Remove WARN_ON_ONCE(!current->ptrace).

2. A new thread always starts with ->jobctl = 0. If it is auto-attached
   and this group is stopped, __ptrace_unlink() sets JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING
   but JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK part is zero, this triggers WANR_ON(!signr)
   in do_jobctl_trap() if another debugger attaches.

   Change __ptrace_unlink() to set the artificial SIGSTOP for report.

   Alternatively we could change ptrace_init_task() to copy signr from
   current, but this means we can copy it for no reason and hide the
   possible similar problems.
