Subject: [PATCH 4/6] signal: Factor out a helper function to process
 task_struct exit_code

do_notify_parent includes the code to convert the exit_code field of
struct task_struct to the code and status fields that accompany SIGCHLD.
Factor that out into a new helper function task_exit_code_status, to
allow other methods of task exit notification to share that code.
