ptrace: fix signal->wait_chldexit usage in task_clear_group_stop_trapping()
GROUP_STOP_TRAPPING waiting mechanism piggybacks on
signal->wait_chldexit which is primarily used to implement waiting for
wait(2) and friends. When do_wait() waits on signal->wait_chldexit,
it uses a custom wake up callback, child_wait_callback(), which
expects the child task which is waking up the parent to be passed in
as @key to filter out spurious wakeups.
task_clear_group_stop_trapping() used __wake_up_sync() which uses NULL
@key causing the following oops if the parent was doing do_wait().

Fix it by using __wake_up_sync_key() and passing in the child as @key.
I still think it's a mistake to piggyback on wait_chldexit for this.
Given the relative low frequency of ptrace use, we would be much
better off leaving already complex wait_chldexit alone and using bit
waitqueue.
