These changes modify the coredump code and the signal_group_exit() function to stop using group_exit_task, and rename the group_exit_task variable to group_exec_task. In addition as I think Linus was asking an additional signal flag is added called SIGNAL_GROUP_DETHREAD, and that flag is used in the function signal_group_exit() so that only signal->flags needs to be tested.
