[PATCH] livepatch: klp_send_signal should treat PF_IO_WORKER like PF_KTHREAD

[Dong Kai <dongkai11@huawei.com>]

commit 15b2219facad ("kernel: freezer should treat PF_IO_WORKER like
PF_KTHREAD for freezing") is to fix the freezeing issue of IO threads
by making the freezer not send them fake signals.

Here live patching consistency model call klp_send_signals to wake up
all tasks by send fake signal to all non-kthread which only check the
PF_KTHREAD flag, so it still send signal to io threads which may lead to
freezeing issue of io threads.

Here we take the same fix action by treating PF_IO_WORKERS as PF_KTHREAD
within klp_send_signal function.
