Oleg Nesterov cf4b8c39b9 fs/proc: do_task_stat: use sig->stats_lock to gather the threads/children stats
[ Upstream commit 7601df8031fd67310af891897ef6cc0df4209305 ]

lock_task_sighand() can trigger a hard lockup.  If NR_CPUS threads call
do_task_stat() at the same time and the process has NR_THREADS, it will
spin with irqs disabled O(NR_CPUS * NR_THREADS) time.

Change do_task_stat() to use sig->stats_lock to gather the statistics
outside of ->siglock protected section, in the likely case this code will
run lockless.
