Subject: move exit_ptrace() from forget_original_parent() to do_exit()
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>
By discussion with Roland.
Call exit_ptrace() from do_exit(), no need to delay this call until
forget_original_parent().
If we ever change exit_ptrace() to do the blocking calls, it makes
sense to move it after exit_signals().
