signal: Use PIDTYPE_TGID to clearly store where file signals will be sent
When f_setown is called a pid and a pid type are stored. Replace the use of PIDTYPE_PID with PIDTYPE_TGID as PIDTYPE_TGID goes to the entire thread group. Replace the use of PIDTYPE_MAX with PIDTYPE_PID as PIDTYPE_PID now is only for a thread. Update the users of __f_setown to use PIDTYPE_TGID instead of PIDTYPE_PID. For now the code continues to capture task_pid (when task_tgid would really be appropriate), and iterate on PIDTYPE_PID (even when type == PIDTYPE_TGID) out of an abundance of caution to preserve existing behavior. Oleg Nesterov suggested using the test to ensure we use PIDTYPE_PID for tgid lookup also be used to avoid taking the tasklist lock. Suggested-by:Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:
