forget_original_parent: do not abuse child->ptrace_entry
By discussion with Roland.
- Use ->sibling instead of ->ptrace_entry to chain the need to be
release_task'd childs. Nobody else can use ->sibling, this task
is EXIT_DEAD and nobody can find it on its own list.
- rename ptrace_dead to dead_childs.
- Now that we don't have the "parallel" untrace code, change back
reparent_thread() to return void, pass dead_childs as an argument.
Actually, I don't understand why do we notify /sbin/init when we
reparent a zombie, probably it is better to reap it unconditionally.
