[PATCH 01/01][RFC] Move Exit Connectors

[Matt Helsley <matthltc@us.ibm.com>]

	This patch moves the process event connector exit function above
exit_mm() with the expectation that it will later be removed from the
exit function with other calls that need to take place before exit_mm().

	I'm looking into how this affects the exit_signal field. Please review
but do not apply.
