Subject: [PATCH] LoongArch: Remove noreturn attribute for die()

If notify_die() returns NOTIFY_STOP, there is no need to call
make_task_dead(), we can remove noreturn attribute for die(),
this is similar with arm64, riscv and csky.

While at it, modify the die() declaration in ptrace.h to fix
the following checkpatch warnings:

  WARNING: function definition argument 'const char *' should also have an identifier name
  WARNING: function definition argument 'struct pt_regs *' should also have an identifier name
