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().
