exec: RT sub-thread can livelock and monopolize CPU on exec
de_thread() yields waiting for ->group_leader to be a zombie. This deadlocks if an rt-prio execer shares the same cpu with ->group_leader. Change the code to use ->group_exit_task/notify_count mechanics. This patch certainly uglifies the code, perhaps someone can suggest something better.
