coredump: kill mm->core_done
Now that we have core_state->dumper list we can use it to wake up the sub-threads waiting for the coredump completion. This uglifies the code and .text grows by 47 bytes, but otoh mm_struct lessens by sizeof(struct completion). Also, with this change we can decouple exit_mm() from the coredumping code.
