Do not blow the signal_struct size. pahole -C signal_struct says:

struct signal_struct {
	atomic_t                   sigcnt;               /*     0     4 */
	atomic_t                   live;                 /*     4     4 */
	int                        nr_threads;           /*     8     4 */

	/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

	struct list_head           thread_head;          /*    16    16 */

So we can stick the new counter after nr_threads and keep the size
of the structure on 64b.

While we are at it also remove the thread_group_leader check from
select_bad_process because it is not really needed as we are iterating
processes rather than threads.
