ptrace: Don't change __state
Stop playing with tsk->__state to remove TASK_WAKEKILL while a ptrace command is executing. Instead remove TASK_WAKEKILL from the definition of TASK_TRACED, and implement a new jobctl flag TASK_PTRACE_FROZEN. This new flag is set in jobctl_freeze_task and cleared when ptrace_stop is awoken or in jobctl_unfreeze_task (when ptrace_stop remains asleep). In signal_wake_up add __TASK_TRACED to state along with TASK_WAKEKILL when the wake up is for a fatal signal. Skip adding __TASK_TRACED when TASK_PTRACE_FROZEN is not set. This has the same effect as changing TASK_TRACED to __TASK_TRACED as all of the wake_ups that use TASK_KILLABLE go through signal_wake_up. Handle a ptrace_stop being called with a pending fatal signal. Previously it would have been handled by schedule simply failing to sleep. As TASK_WAKEKILL is no longer part of TASK_TRACED schedule will sleep with a fatal_signal_pending. The code in signal_wake_up guarantees that the code will be awaked by any fatal signal that codes after TASK_TRACED is set. Previously the __state value of __TASK_TRACED was changed to TASK_RUNNING when woken up or back to TASK_TRACED when the code was left in ptrace_stop. Now when woken up ptrace_stop now clears JOBCTL_PTRACE_FROZEN and when left sleeping ptrace_unfreezed_traced clears JOBCTL_PTRACE_FROZEN.
