Oleg Nesterov 2e2ba22ea4 signals: check_kill_permission: check session under tasklist_lock
This wasn't documented, but as Atsushi Tsuji pointed out
check_kill_permission() needs tasklist_lock for task_session_nr().  I missed
this fact when removed tasklist from the callers.

Change check_kill_permission() to take tasklist_lock for the SIGCONT case.
Re-order security checks so that we take tasklist_lock only if/when it is
actually needed.  This is a minimal fix for now, tasklist will be removed
later.

Also change the code to use task_session() instead of task_session_nr().

Also, remove the SIGCONT check from cap_task_kill(), it is bogus (and the
whole function is bogus.  Serge, Eric, why it is still alive?).
