This helper is misleading. It tests for an ongoing exec as well as the process having received a fatal signal. Sometimes it is appropriate to treat an on-going exec differently than a process that is shutting down due to a fatal signal. In particular taking the fast path out of exit_signals instead of retargeting signals is not appropriate during exec, and not changing the the exit code in do_group_exit during exec. Removing the helper makes it more obvious what is going on as both cases must be coded for explicitly. While removing the helper fix the two cases where I have observed using signal_group_exit resulted in the wrong result. In exit_signals only test for SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT so that signals are retargetted during an exec. In do_group_exit use 0 as the exit code during an exec as de_thread does not set group_exit_code. As best as I can determine group_exit_code has been is set to 0 most of the time during de_thread. During a thread group stop group_exit_code is set to the stop signal and when the thread group receives SIGCONT group_exit_code is reset to 0.
