Subject: [PATCH -mm] introduce tracehook_finish_jctl() helper

(textually depends on signals-tracehook_notify_jctl-change.patch)

Introduce the empty inline tracehook_finish_jctl() helper called by
do_signal_stop() after wakeup.

Currently we lack the ability to report this state change.

Also fix the comment, it should be placed before schedule().
