make do_notify_parent() return bool
- change do_notify_parent() to return a boolean, true if the task should be reaped because its parent ignores SIGCHLD. - update the only caller which checks the returned value, exit_notify(). This temporary uglifies exit_notify() even more, will be cleanuped by the next change. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
