Oleg Nesterov 0af83220a4 exit: call disassociate_ctty() before exit_task_namespaces()
commit c39df5fa37 upstream.

Commit 8aac62706a ("move exit_task_namespaces() outside of
exit_notify()") breaks pppd and the exiting service crashes the kernel:

    BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028
    IP: ppp_register_channel+0x13/0x20 [ppp_generic]
    Call Trace:
      ppp_asynctty_open+0x12b/0x170 [ppp_async]
      tty_ldisc_open.isra.2+0x27/0x60
      tty_ldisc_hangup+0x1e3/0x220
      __tty_hangup+0x2c4/0x440
      disassociate_ctty+0x61/0x270
      do_exit+0x7f2/0xa50

ppp_register_channel() needs ->net_ns and current->nsproxy == NULL.

Move disassociate_ctty() before exit_task_namespaces(), it doesn't make
sense to delay it after perf_event_exit_task() or cgroup_exit().

This also allows to use task_work_add() inside the (nontrivial) code
paths in disassociate_ctty().

Oleg Nesterov de661dfb1d wait: fix reparent_leader() vs EXIT_DEAD->EXIT_ZOMBIE race
commit dfccbb5e49 upstream.

wait_task_zombie() first does EXIT_ZOMBIE->EXIT_DEAD transition and
drops tasklist_lock.  If this task is not the natural child and it is
traced, we change its state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE for ->real_parent.

The last transition is racy, this is even documented in 50b8d25748
"ptrace: partially fix the do_wait(WEXITED) vs EXIT_DEAD->EXIT_ZOMBIE
race".  wait_consider_task() tries to detect this transition and clear
->notask_error but we can't rely on ptrace_reparented(), debugger can
exit and do ptrace_unlink() before its sub-thread sets EXIT_ZOMBIE.

And there is another problem which were missed before: this transition
can also race with reparent_leader() which doesn't reset >exit_signal if
EXIT_DEAD, assuming that this task must be reaped by someone else.  So
the tracee can be re-parented with ->exit_signal != SIGCHLD, and if
/sbin/init doesn't use __WALL it becomes unreapable.

Change reparent_leader() to update ->exit_signal even if EXIT_DEAD.
Note: this is the simple temporary hack for -stable, it doesn't try to
solve all problems, it will be reverted by the next changes.

Oleg Nesterov 0c740d0afc introduce for_each_thread() to replace the buggy while_each_thread()
while_each_thread() and next_thread() should die, almost every lockless
usage is wrong.

1. Unless g == current, the lockless while_each_thread() is not safe.

   while_each_thread(g, t) can loop forever if g exits, next_thread()
   can't reach the unhashed thread in this case. Note that this can
   happen even if g is the group leader, it can exec.

2. Even if while_each_thread() itself was correct, people often use
   it wrongly.

   It was never safe to just take rcu_read_lock() and loop unless
   you verify that pid_alive(g) == T, even the first next_thread()
   can point to the already freed/reused memory.

This patch adds signal_struct->thread_head and task->thread_node to
create the normal rcu-safe list with the stable head.  The new
for_each_thread(g, t) helper is always safe under rcu_read_lock() as
long as this task_struct can't go away.

Note: of course it is ugly to have both task_struct->thread_node and the
old task_struct->thread_group, we will kill it later, after we change
the users of while_each_thread() to use for_each_thread().

Perhaps we can kill it even before we convert all users, we can
reimplement next_thread(t) using the new thread_head/thread_node.  But
we can't do this right now because this will lead to subtle behavioural
changes.  For example, do/while_each_thread() always sees at least one
task, while for_each_thread() can do nothing if the whole thread group
has died.  Or thread_group_empty(), currently its semantics is not clear
unless thread_group_leader(p) and we need to audit the callers before we
can change it.

So this patch adds the new interface which has to coexist with the old
one for some time, hopefully the next changes will be more or less
straightforward and the old one will go away soon.

Oleg Nesterov 7c8df28633 ptrace: revert "Prepare to fix racy accesses on task breakpoints"
This reverts commit bf26c01849 ("Prepare to fix racy accesses on task
breakpoints").

The patch was fine but we can no longer race with SIGKILL after commit
9899d11f65 ("ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race
with SIGKILL"), the __TASK_TRACED tracee can't be woken up and
->ptrace_bps[] can't go away.

Now that ptrace_get_breakpoints/ptrace_put_breakpoints have no callers,
we can kill them and remove task->ptrace_bp_refcnt.

Oleg Nesterov 8aac62706a move exit_task_namespaces() outside of exit_notify()
exit_notify() does exit_task_namespaces() after
forget_original_parent(). This was needed to ensure that ->nsproxy
can't be cleared prematurely, an exiting child we are going to
reparent can do do_notify_parent() and use the parent's (ours) pid_ns.

However, after 32084504 "pidns: use task_active_pid_ns in
do_notify_parent" ->nsproxy != NULL is no longer needed, we rely
on task_active_pid_ns().

Move exit_task_namespaces() from exit_notify() to do_exit(), after
exit_fs() and before exit_task_work().

This solves the problem reported by Andrey, free_ipc_ns()->shm_destroy()
does fput() which needs task_work_add().

Note: this particular problem can be fixed if we change fput(), and
that change makes sense anyway. But there is another reason to move
the callsite. The original reason for exit_task_namespaces() from
the middle of exit_notify() was subtle and it has already gone away,
now this looks confusing. And this allows us do simplify exit_notify(),
we can avoid unlock/lock(tasklist) and we can use ->exit_state instead
of PF_EXITING in forget_original_parent().

Colin Cross 1b1d2fb444 lockdep: remove task argument from debug_check_no_locks_held
The only existing caller to debug_check_no_locks_held calls it
with 'current' as the task, and the freezer needs to call
debug_check_no_locks_held but doesn't already have a current
task pointer, so remove the argument.  It is already assuming
that the current task is relevant by dumping the current stack
trace as part of the warning.

This was originally part of 6aa9707099 (lockdep: check that
no locks held at freeze time) which was reverted in
dbf520a9d7.

We shouldn't try_to_freeze if locks are held.  Holding a lock can cause a
deadlock if the lock is later acquired in the suspend or hibernate path
(e.g.  by dpm).  Holding a lock can also cause a deadlock in the case of
cgroup_freezer if a lock is held inside a frozen cgroup that is later
acquired by a process outside that group.

Linus Torvalds 6a2b60b17b Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
 "While small this set of changes is very significant with respect to
  containers in general and user namespaces in particular.  The user
  space interface is now complete.

  This set of changes adds support for unprivileged users to create user
  namespaces and as a user namespace root to create other namespaces.
  The tyranny of supporting suid root preventing unprivileged users from
  using cool new kernel features is broken.

  This set of changes completes the work on setns, adding support for
  the pid, user, mount namespaces.

  This set of changes includes a bunch of basic pid namespace
  cleanups/simplifications.  Of particular significance is the rework of
  the pid namespace cleanup so it no longer requires sending out
  tendrils into all kinds of unexpected cleanup paths for operation.  At
  least one case of broken error handling is fixed by this cleanup.

  The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been converted from regular files
  to magic symlinks which prevents incorrect caching by the VFS,
  ensuring the files always refer to the namespace the process is
  currently using and ensuring that the ptrace_mayaccess permission
  checks are always applied.

  The files under /proc/<pid>/ns/ have been given stable inode numbers
  so it is now possible to see if different processes share the same
  namespaces.

  Through the David Miller's net tree are changes to relax many of the
  permission checks in the networking stack to allowing the user
  namespace root to usefully use the networking stack.  Similar changes
  for the mount namespace and the pid namespace are coming through my
  tree.

  Two small changes to add user namespace support were commited here adn
  in David Miller's -net tree so that I could complete the work on the
  /proc/<pid>/ns/ files in this tree.

  Work remains to make it safe to build user namespaces and 9p, afs,
  ceph, cifs, coda, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, nfsd, ocfs2, and xfs so the
  Kconfig guard remains in place preventing that user namespaces from
  being built when any of those filesystems are enabled.

Linus Torvalds 9977d9b379 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal
Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
 "All architectures are converted to new model.  Quite a bit of that
  stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
  literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.

  A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):

   - kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.

     We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
     or kernel_execve():

     kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
     return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
     successful do_execve() before returning.

     kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
     do transition to user mode anymore.

     As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
     arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
     resp.  sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
     architecture-independent.

   - daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c

   - struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
     copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.

   - sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
     still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
     pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
     kernel/fork.c now."

To lower the confusion, rename thread_group_times() to
thread_group_cputime_adjusted(). This name better suggests that
it's a version of thread_group_cputime() that does some stabilization
on the raw cputime values. ie here: scale on top of CFS runtime

Pull vfs update from Al Viro:

 - big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
   that is moved to fs/file.c

   (BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c.  As it is,
   we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
   file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
   are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
   struct file we used to have way back).

   A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
   disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
   doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore.  A bunch of
   relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
   leak.

 - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
   there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).

 - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
   that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
   switch of fdinfo to seq_file.

 - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
   take that commit than mess with conflicts.  The rest is a separate
   pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.

 - a few misc patches all over the place.  Not all for this cycle,
   there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."

Eric Dumazet 5640f76858 net: use a per task frag allocator
We currently use a per socket order-0 page cache for tcp_sendmsg()
operations.

This page is used to build fragments for skbs.

Its done to increase probability of coalescing small write() into
single segments in skbs still in write queue (not yet sent)

But it wastes a lot of memory for applications handling many mostly
idle sockets, since each socket holds one page in sk->sk_sndmsg_page

Its also quite inefficient to build TSO 64KB packets, because we need
about 16 pages per skb on arches where PAGE_SIZE = 4096, so we hit
page allocator more than wanted.

This patch adds a per task frag allocator and uses bigger pages,
if available. An automatic fallback is done in case of memory pressure.

(up to 32768 bytes per frag, thats order-3 pages on x86)

This increases TCP stream performance by 20% on loopback device,
but also benefits on other network devices, since 8x less frags are
mapped on transmit and unmapped on tx completion. Alexander Duyck
mentioned a probable performance win on systems with IOMMU enabled.

Its possible some SG enabled hardware cant cope with bigger fragments,
but their ndo_start_xmit() should already handle this, splitting a
fragment in sub fragments, since some arches have PAGE_SIZE=65536

Successfully tested on various ethernet devices.

Josh Boyer 8ded2bbc18 posix_types.h: Cleanup stale __NFDBITS and related definitions
Recently, glibc made a change to suppress sign-conversion warnings in
FD_SET (glibc commit ceb9e56b3d1).  This uncovered an issue with the
kernel's definition of __NFDBITS if applications #include
<linux/types.h> after including <sys/select.h>.  A build failure would
be seen when passing the -Werror=sign-compare and -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
flags to gcc.

It was suggested that the kernel should either match the glibc
definition of __NFDBITS or remove that entirely.  The current in-kernel
uses of __NFDBITS can be replaced with BITS_PER_LONG, and there are no
uses of the related __FDELT and __FDMASK defines.  Given that, we'll
continue the cleanup that was started with commit 8b3d1cda4f
("posix_types: Remove fd_set macros") and drop the remaining unused
macros.

Additionally, linux/time.h has similar macros defined that expand to
nothing so we'll remove those at the same time.

Oleg Nesterov 50d75f8dae pidns: find_new_reaper() can no longer switch to init_pid_ns.child_reaper
find_new_reaper() changes pid_ns->child_reaper, see add0d4df ("pid_ns:
zap_pid_ns_processes: fix the ->child_reaper changing").

The original reason has gone away after the previous patch, ->children
list must be empty after zap_pid_ns_processes().

However now we can not switch to init_pid_ns.child_reaper.
__unhash_process() relies on the "->child_reaper == parent" check, but
this check does not work if the last exiting task is also the child
reaper.

As Eric sugested, we can change __unhash_process() to use the parent's
pid_ns and remove this code.

Also, with this change we can move detach_pid(PIDTYPE_PID) back, where it
was before the previous fix.

Eric W. Biederman 6347e90091 pidns: guarantee that the pidns init will be the last pidns process reaped
Today we have a twofold bug.  Sometimes release_task on pid == 1 in a pid
namespace can run before other processes in a pid namespace have had
release task called.  With the result that pid_ns_release_proc can be
called before the last proc_flus_task() is done using upid->ns->proc_mnt,
resulting in the use of a stale pointer.  This same set of circumstances
can lead to waitpid(...) returning for a processes started with
clone(CLONE_NEWPID) before the every process in the pid namespace has
actually exited.

To fix this modify zap_pid_ns_processess wait until all other processes in
the pid namespace have exited, even EXIT_DEAD zombies.

The delay_group_leader and related tests ensure that the thread gruop
leader will be the last thread of a process group to be reaped, or to
become EXIT_DEAD and self reap.  With the change to zap_pid_ns_processes
we get the guarantee that pid == 1 in a pid namespace will be the last
task that release_task is called on.

With pid == 1 being the last task to pass through release_task
pid_ns_release_proc can no longer be called too early nor can wait return
before all of the EXIT_DEAD tasks in a pid namespace have exited.

Linus Torvalds 48d212a2ee Revert "mm: correctly synchronize rss-counters at exit/exec"
This reverts commit 40af1bbdca.

It's horribly and utterly broken for at least the following reasons:

 - calling sync_mm_rss() from mmput() is fundamentally wrong, because
   there's absolutely no reason to believe that the task that does the
   mmput() always does it on its own VM.  Example: fork, ptrace, /proc -
   you name it.

 - calling it *after* having done mmdrop() on it is doubly insane, since
   the mm struct may well be gone now.

 - testing mm against NULL before you call it is insane too, since a
NULL mm there would have caused oopses long before.

.. and those are just the three bugs I found before I decided to give up
looking for me and revert it asap.  I should have caught it before I
even took it, but I trusted Andrew too much.

Konstantin Khlebnikov 40af1bbdca mm: correctly synchronize rss-counters at exit/exec
mm->rss_stat counters have per-task delta: task->rss_stat.  Before
changing task->mm pointer the kernel must flush this delta with
sync_mm_rss().

do_exit() already calls sync_mm_rss() to flush the rss-counters before
committing the rss statistics into task->signal->maxrss, taskstats,
audit and other stuff.  Unfortunately the kernel does this before
calling mm_release(), which can call put_user() for processing
task->clear_child_tid.  So at this point we can trigger page-faults and
task->rss_stat becomes non-zero again.  As a result mm->rss_stat becomes
inconsistent and check_mm() will print something like this:

| BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:1 val:-1
| BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:2 val:1

This patch moves sync_mm_rss() into mm_release(), and moves mm_release()
out of do_exit() and calls it earlier.  After mm_release() there should
be no pagefaults.

Oleg Nesterov 43e13cc107 cred: remove task_is_dead() from __task_cred() validation
Commit 8f92054e7c ("CRED: Fix __task_cred()'s lockdep check and banner
comment"):

    add the following validation condition:

        task->exit_state >= 0

    to permit the access if the target task is dead and therefore
    unable to change its own credentials.

OK, but afaics currently this can only help wait_task_zombie() which calls
__task_cred() without rcu lock.

Remove this validation and change wait_task_zombie() to use task_uid()
instead.  This means we do rcu_read_lock() only to shut up the lockdep,
but we already do the same in, say, wait_task_stopped().

task_is_dead() should die, task->exit_state != 0 means that this task has
passed exit_notify(), only do_wait-like code paths should use this.

Unfortunately, we can't kill task_is_dead() right now, it has already
acquired buggy users in drivers/staging.  The fix already exists.

Oleg Nesterov 4d1d61a6b2 genirq: reimplement exit_irq_thread() hook via task_work_add()
exit_irq_thread() and task->irq_thread are needed to handle the unexpected
(and unlikely) exit of irq-thread.

We can use task_work instead and make this all private to
kernel/irq/manage.c, cleanup plus micro-optimization.

1. rename exit_irq_thread() to irq_thread_dtor(), make it
   static, and move it up before irq_thread().

2. change irq_thread() to do task_work_add(irq_thread_dtor)
   at the start and task_work_cancel() before return.

   tracehook_notify_resume() can never play with kthreads,
   only do_exit()->exit_task_work() can call the callback
   and this is what we want.

3. remove task_struct->irq_thread and the special hook
   in do_exit().

Oleg Nesterov e73f8959af task_work_add: generic process-context callbacks
Provide a simple mechanism that allows running code in the (nonatomic)
context of the arbitrary task.

The caller does task_work_add(task, task_work) and this task executes
task_work->func() either from do_notify_resume() or from do_exit().  The
callback can rely on PF_EXITING to detect the latter case.

"struct task_work" can be embedded in another struct, still it has "void
*data" to handle the most common/simple case.

This allows us to kill the ->replacement_session_keyring hack, and
potentially this can have more users.

Performance-wise, this adds 2 "unlikely(!hlist_empty())" checks into
tracehook_notify_resume() and do_exit().  But at the same time we can
remove the "replacement_session_keyring != NULL" checks from
arch/*/signal.c and exit_creds().

Note: task_work_add/task_work_run abuses ->pi_lock.  This is only because
this lock is already used by lookup_pi_state() to synchronize with
do_exit() setting PF_EXITING.  Fortunately the scope of this lock in
task_work.c is really tiny, and the code is unlikely anyway.

Sasha Levin 8ca937a668 cred: use correct cred accessor with regards to rcu read lock
Commit "userns: Convert setting and getting uid and gid system calls to use
kuid and kgid has modified the accessors in wait_task_continued() and
wait_task_stopped() to use __task_cred() instead of task_uid().

__task_cred() assumes that we're inside a rcu read lock, which is untrue
for these two functions.

Modify it to use task_uid() instead.

Denys Vlasenko 397a21f24d kernel/exit.c: if init dies, log a signal which killed it, if any
I just received another user's pleas for help when their init
mysteriously died.  I again explained that they need to check whether it
died because of bad instruction, a segv, or something else.  Which was
an annoying detour into writing a trivial C program to spawn his init
and print its exit code:

  http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2012-January/077172.html

I hear you saying "just test it under /bin/sh".  Well, the crashing init
_was_ /bin/sh.

Which prompted me to make kernel do this first step automatically.  We can
print exit code, which makes it possible to see that death was from e.g.
SIGILL without writing test programs.

Lennart Poettering ebec18a6d3 prctl: add PR_{SET,GET}_CHILD_SUBREAPER to allow simple process supervision
Userspace service managers/supervisors need to track their started
services.  Many services daemonize by double-forking and get implicitly
re-parented to PID 1.  The service manager will no longer be able to
receive the SIGCHLD signals for them, and is no longer in charge of
reaping the children with wait().  All information about the children is
lost at the moment PID 1 cleans up the re-parented processes.

With this prctl, a service manager process can mark itself as a sort of
'sub-init', able to stay as the parent for all orphaned processes
created by the started services.  All SIGCHLD signals will be delivered
to the service manager.

Receiving SIGCHLD and doing wait() is in cases of a service-manager much
preferred over any possible asynchronous notification about specific
PIDs, because the service manager has full access to the child process
data in /proc and the PID can not be re-used until the wait(), the
service-manager itself is in charge of, has happened.

As a side effect, the relevant parent PID information does not get lost
by a double-fork, which results in a more elaborate process tree and
'ps' output:

before:
  # ps afx
  253 ?        Ss     0:00 /bin/dbus-daemon --system --nofork
  294 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/libexec/polkit-1/polkitd
  328 ?        S      0:00 /usr/sbin/modem-manager
  608 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/libexec/colord
  658 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/libexec/upowerd
  819 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/libexec/imsettings-daemon
  916 ?        Sl     0:00 /usr/libexec/udisks-daemon
  917 ?        S      0:00  \_ udisks-daemon: not polling any devices

after:
  # ps afx
  294 ?        Ss     0:00 /bin/dbus-daemon --system --nofork
  426 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ /usr/libexec/polkit-1/polkitd
  449 ?        S      0:00  \_ /usr/sbin/modem-manager
  635 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ /usr/libexec/colord
  705 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ /usr/libexec/upowerd
  959 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ /usr/libexec/udisks-daemon
  960 ?        S      0:00  |   \_ udisks-daemon: not polling any devices
  977 ?        Sl     0:00  \_ /usr/libexec/packagekitd

This prctl is orthogonal to PID namespaces.  PID namespaces are isolated
from each other, while a service management process usually requires the
services to live in the same namespace, to be able to talk to each
other.

Users of this will be the systemd per-user instance, which provides
init-like functionality for the user's login session and D-Bus, which
activates bus services on-demand.  Both need init-like capabilities to
be able to properly keep track of the services they start.

Many thanks to Oleg for several rounds of review and insights.

Oleg Nesterov b6e238dcee exit_signal: fix the "parent has changed security domain" logic
exit_notify() changes ->exit_signal if the parent already did exec.
This doesn't really work, we are not going to send the signal now
if there is another live thread or the exiting task is traced. The
parent can exec before the last dies or the tracer detaches.

Move this check into do_notify_parent() which actually sends the
signal.

The user-visible change is that we do not change ->exit_signal,
and thus the exiting task is still "clone children" for
do_wait()->eligible_child(__WCLONE). Hopefully this is fine, the
current logic is racy anyway.

Oleg Nesterov e636825346 exit_signal: simplify the "we have changed execution domain" logic
exit_notify() checks "tsk->self_exec_id != tsk->parent_exec_id"
to handle the "we have changed execution domain" case.

We can change do_thread() to always set ->exit_signal = SIGCHLD
and remove this check to simplify the code.

We could change setup_new_exec() instead, this looks more logical
because it increments ->self_exec_id. But note that de_thread()
already resets ->exit_signal if it changes the leader, let's keep
both changes close to each other.

Note that we change ->exit_signal lockless, this changes the rules.
Thereafter ->exit_signal is not stable under tasklist but this is
fine, the only possible change is OLDSIG -> SIGCHLD. This can race
with eligible_child() but the race is harmless. We can race with
reparent_leader() which changes our ->exit_signal in parallel, but
it does the same change to SIGCHLD.

The noticeable user-visible change is that the execing task is not
"visible" to do_wait()->eligible_child(__WCLONE) right after exec.
To me this looks more logical, and this is consistent with mt case.

Alexander Gordeev 5234ffb9f7 genirq: Get rid of unnecessary IRQTF_DIED flag
Currently IRQTF_DIED flag is set when a IRQ thread handler calls do_exit()
But also PF_EXITING per process flag gets set when a thread exits. This
fix eliminates the duplicate by using PF_EXITING flag.

Also, there is a race condition in exit_irq_thread(). In case a thread's
bit is cleared in desc->threads_oneshot (and the IRQ line gets unmasked),
but before IRQTF_DIED flag is set, a new interrupt might come in and set
just cleared bit again, this time forever. This fix throws IRQTF_DIED flag
away, eliminating the race as a result.
