fix group stop with exit race

do_signal_stop() counts all sub-thread and sets ->group_stop_count
accordingly.  Every thread should decrement ->group_stop_count and stop,
the last one should notify the parent.

However a sub-thread can exit before it notices the signal_pending(), or it
may be somewhere in do_exit() already.  In that case the group stop never
finishes properly.

Note: this is a minimal fix, we can add some optimizations later.  Say we
can return quickly if thread_group_empty().  Also, we can move some signal
related code from exit_notify() to exit_signals().
