Subject: exit: __exit_signal: use thread_group_leader() consistently
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>
Cleanup:
- Add the boolean, group_dead = thread_group_leader(), for clarity.
- Do not test/set sig == NULL to detect the all-dead case, use this
boolean.
- Pass this boolen to __unhash_process() and use it instead of another
thread_group_leader() call which needs ->group_leader.
This can be considered as microoptimization, but hopefully this also
allows us do do other cleanups later.
