Oleg Nesterov fa2755e20a INIT_TASK() should initialize ->thread_group list
The trivial /sbin/init doing

	int main(void)
	{
		kill(0, SIGKILL)
	}

crashes the kernel.

This happens because __kill_pgrp_info(init_struct_pid) also sends SIGKILL
to the swapper process which runs with the uninitialized ->thread_group.

Change INIT_TASK() to initialize ->thread_group properly.

Note: the real problem is that the swapper process must not be visible to
signals, see the next patch. But this change is right anyway and fixes
the crash.
