nptl: pthread_kill must send signals to a specific thread [BZ #28407]
The choice between the kill vs tgkill system calls is not just about the TID reuse race, but also about whether the signal is sent to the whole process (and any thread in it) or to a specific thread. This was caught by the openposix test suite: LTP: openposix test suite - FAIL: SIGUSR1 is member of new thread pendingset. <https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-tests/-/issues/764 > Fixes commit 526c3cf1 ("nptl: Fix race between pthread_kill and thread exit (bug 12889)").
