Subject: [PATCH 7/8] taskstats: fix stats->ac_exitcode to work on threads and
	use group_exit_code

Threads also have an exit code on their own, so report it in
TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_PID.

For TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_TGID, instead of relying only on the exit code of the
leader, we use task->signal->group_exit_code if not null as suggested by
Oleg Nesterov.

Also, document that as of this patch, fill_threadgroup_stats() must be called
after add_tsk_stats() as it may overwrite some stats.
