seccomp: release task filters when the task exits
Previously, seccomp filters were released in release_task(), which
required the process to exit and its zombie to be collected. However,
exited threads/processes can't trigger any seccomp events, making it
more logical to release filters upon task exits.
This adjustment simplifies scenarios where a parent is tracing its child
process. The parent process can now handle all events from a seccomp
listening descriptor and then call wait to collect a child zombie.
seccomp_filter_release takes the siglock to avoid races with
seccomp_sync_threads. There was an idea to bypass taking the lock by
checking PF_EXITING, but it can be set without holding siglock if
threads have SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT. This means it can happen concurently
with seccomp_filter_release.
This change also fixes another minor problem. Suppose that a group
leader installs the new filter without SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_TSYNC, exits,
and becomes a zombie. Without this change, SECCOMP_FILTER_FLAG_TSYNC
from any other thread can never succeed, seccomp_can_sync_threads() will
check a zombie leader and is_ancestor() will fail.
