threadgroup_lock() protected only protected against new addition to
the threadgroup, which was inherently somewhat incomplete and
problematic for its only user cgroup. On-going migration could race
against exec and exit leading to interesting problems - the symmetry
between various attach methods, task exiting during method execution,
->exit() racing against attach methods, migrating task switching basic
properties during exec and so on.
This patch extends threadgroup_lock() such that it protects against
all three threadgroup altering operations - fork, exit and exec. For
exit, threadgroup_change_begin/end() calls are added to exit_signals
around assertion of PF_EXITING. For exec, threadgroup_[un]lock() are
updated to also grab and release cred_guard_mutex.
With this change, threadgroup_lock() guarantees that the target
threadgroup will remain stable - no new task will be added, no new
PF_EXITING will be set and exec won't happen.
The next patch will update cgroup so that it can take full advantage
of this change.
-v2: beefed up comment as suggested by Frederic.
-v3: narrowed scope of protection in exit path as suggested by
Frederic.
