[PATCH] set EXIT_DEAD state in do_exit(), not in schedule()

[PATCH] set EXIT_DEAD state in do_exit(), not in schedule()

schedule() checks PF_DEAD on every context switch and sets ->state = EXIT_DEAD
to ensure that the exiting task will be deactivated.  Note that this EXIT_DEAD
is in fact a "random" value, we can use any bit except normal TASK_XXX values.

It is better to set this state in do_exit() along with PF_DEAD flag and remove
that check in schedule().

We are safe wrt concurrent try_to_wake_up() (for example ptrace, tkill), it
can not change task's ->state: the 'state' argument of try_to_wake_up() can't
have EXIT_DEAD bit.  And in case when try_to_wake_up() sees a stale value of
->state == TASK_RUNNING it will do nothing.
