Subject: [RFC 2/2] signal: extend pidfd_send_signal() to allow expedited
 process killing

Add new SS_EXPEDITE flag to be used when sending SIGKILL via
pidfd_send_signal() syscall to allow expedited memory reclaim of the
victim process. The usage of this flag is currently limited to SIGKILL
signal and only to privileged users.
