oom: multi threaded process coredump don't make deadlock

Browse Source 
Oleg pointed out current PF_EXITING check is wrong. Because PF_EXITING
is per-thread flag, not per-process flag. He said,

   Two threads, group-leader L and its sub-thread T. T dumps the code.
   In this case both threads have ->mm != NULL, L has PF_EXITING.

   The first problem is, select_bad_process() always return -1 in this
   case (even if the caller is T, this doesn't matter).

   The second problem is that we should add TIF_MEMDIE to T, not L.

I think we can remove this dubious PF_EXITING check. but as first step,
This patch add the protection of multi threaded issue.
