is_current_single_threaded() can safely miss a freshly forked CLONE_VM
task, but in this case it must not miss its parent. That is why we take
mm->mmap_sem for writing to make sure a thread/task with the same ->mm
can't pass exit_mm() and disappear.
However we can avoid ->mmap_sem and rely on rcu/barriers:
- if we do not see the exiting parent on thread/process list
we see the result of list_del_rcu(), in this case we must
also see the result of list_add_rcu() which does wmb().
- if we do see the parent but its ->mm == NULL, we need rmb()
to make sure we can't miss the child.

- is_single_threaded(task) is not safe unless task == current,
we can't use task->signal or task->mm.
- it doesn't make sense unless task == current, the task can
fork right after the check.
Rename it to current_is_single_threaded() and kill the argument.

- Fix the comment, is_single_threaded(p) actually means that nobody shares
->mm with p.
I think this helper should be renamed, and it should not have arguments.
With or without this patch it must not be used unless p == current,
otherwise we can't safely use p->signal or p->mm.
- "if (atomic_read(&p->signal->count) != 1)" is not right when we have a
zombie group leader, use signal->live instead.
- Add PF_KTHREAD check to skip kernel threads which may borrow p->mm,
otherwise we can return the wrong "false".
- Use for_each_process() instead of do_each_thread(), all threads must use
the same ->mm.
- Use down_write(mm->mmap_sem) + rcu_read_lock() instead of tasklist_lock
to iterate over the process list. If there is another CLONE_VM process
it can't pass exit_mm() which takes the same mm->mmap_sem. We can miss
a freshly forked CLONE_VM task, but this doesn't matter because we must
see its parent and return false.

Rename is_single_threaded() to is_wq_single_threaded() so that a new
is_single_threaded() can be created that refers to tasks rather than
waitqueues.
