exec: Check for a pending fatal signal instead of core_state
Prevent exec continuing when a fatal signal is pending by replacing
mmap_read_lock with mmap_read_lock_killable. This is always the right
thing to do as userspace will never observe an exec complete when
there is a fatal signal pending.
With that change it becomes unnecessary to explicitly test for a core
dump in progress. In coredump_wait zap_threads arranges under
mmap_write_lock for all tasks that use a mm to also have SIGKILL
pending, which means mmap_read_lock_killable will always return -EINTR
when old_mm->core_state is present.
