Oleg Nesterov a98fdcef94 fix the "remove task_ppid_nr_ns" commit
Commit 84427eaef1 (remove task_ppid_nr_ns)
moved the task_tgid_nr_ns(task->real_parent) outside of lock_task_sighand().
This is wrong, ->real_parent could be freed/reused.

Both ->parent/real_parent point to nothing after __exit_signal() because
we remove the child from ->children list, and thus the child can't be
reparented when its parent exits.

rcu_read_lock() protects ->parent/real_parent, but _only_ if we know it was
valid before we take rcu lock.

Revert this part of the patch.
