[PATCH] avoid tasklist_lock at getrusage for multithreaded case too

Avoid taking tasklist_lock for at getrusage for the multithreaded case too.
We don't need to take the tasklist lock for thread traversal of a process
since Oleg's do-__unhash_process-under-siglock.patch and related work.

* tasklist_lock locking optimisation:

* no one else can reap the children to update signal->c* counters, and
* no one else can race with the signal-> fields.

* read memory barrier when we avoid the lock. On the writer side,
* write memory barrier is implied in __exit_signal as __exit_signal releases
* the siglock spinlock after updating the signal-> fields.
*
* We don't really need the siglock when we access the non c* fields
* of the signal_struct (for RUSAGE_SELF) even in multithreaded
* case, since we take the tasklist lock for read and the non c* signal->
* fields are updated only in __exit_signal, which is called with
* tasklist_lock taken for write, hence these two threads cannot execute
* concurrently.
* Locking:
* We need to take the siglock for CHILDEREN, SELF and BOTH
* for the cases current multithreaded, non-current single threaded
* non-current multithreaded. Thread traversal is now safe with
* the siglock held.
* Strictly speaking, we donot need to take the siglock if we are current and
* single threaded, as no one else can take our signal_struct away, no one
* else can reap the children to update signal->c* counters, and no one else
* can race with the signal-> fields. If we do not take any lock, the
* signal-> fields could be read out of order while another thread was just
* exiting. So we should place a read memory barrier when we avoid the lock.
* On the writer side, write memory barrier is implied in __exit_signal
* as __exit_signal releases the siglock spinlock after updating the signal->
* fields. But we don't do this yet to keep things simple.
