	Good point. The assignment of the task exit code will also have to move
up before exit_mm(tsk) because the process event connector exit function
retrieves the exit code from the task struct.

	Moving these may also affect the job/pagg/task_notify/cpuset exit
notification if we're eventually going to remove *direct* calls to these
from kernel/exit.c.
