sched, signals: fix the racy usage of ->signal in account_group_xxx/run_posix_cpu_timers

Impact: fix potential NULL dereference

Contrary to ad474cac changelog, other
acct_group_xxx() helpers can be called after exit_notify() by timer tick.
Thanks to Roland for pointing out this. Somehow I missed this simple fact
when I read the original patch, and I am afraid I confused Frank during
the discussion. Sorry.

Fortunately, these helpers work with current, we can check ->exit_state
to ensure that ->signal can't go away under us.

Also, add the comment and compiler barrier to account_group_exec_runtime(),
to make sure we load ->signal only once.
