So the tracee calls ptrace_notify() but debugger goes away before the ptrace_notify() takes siglock. After that the no longer traced task will sleep in TASK_TRACED ? Looks like ptrace_stop() needs to check current->ptrace before it does set_special_state(TASK_TRACED) with siglock held? Then we can rely on ptrace_unlink() which will wake the tracee up even if debugger exits. No? Oleg.
