Subject: ptrace_untrace: fix the SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED check
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>
This bug is ancient too. ptrace_untrace() must not resume the task
if the group stop in progress, we should set TASK_STOPPED instead.
Unfortunately, we still have problems here:
- if the process/thread was traced, SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED
does not necessary means this thread group is stopped.
- ptrace breaks the bookkeeping of ->group_stop_count.
