[PATCH 1/9] signal/sh: Use force_sig(SIGKILL) instead of do_group_exit(SIGKILL)

[Eric W. Biederman]

Today the sh code allocates memory the first time a process uses
the fpu.  If that memory allocation fails kill the affected task
with force_sig(SIGKILL) rather than do_group_exit(SIGKILL).

Calling do_group_exit from an exception handler can potentially lead
to locking dead locks as do_group_exit is not designed to be called
from interrupt context.  Instead use force_sig(SIGKILL) to kill
the userspace process.  Sending signals in general and force_sig
in particular has been tested from interrupt context so there
should be no problems.
