do_wait-wakeup-optimization: fix child_wait_callback()->eligible_child() usage
child_wait_callback()->eligible_child() is not right, we can miss the wakeup if the task was detached before __wake_up_parent() and the caller of do_wait() didn't use __WALL. Move ->wo_pid checks from eligible_child() to the new helper, eligible_pid(), and change child_wait_callback() to use it instead of eligible_child(). Note: actually I think it would be better to fix the __WCLONE check in eligible_child(), it doesn't look exactly right. But it is not clear what is the supposed behaviour, and any change is user-visible.
