exec: RT sub-thread can livelock and monopolize CPU on exec

de_thread() yields waiting for ->group_leader to be a zombie. This deadlocks
if an rt-prio execer shares the same cpu with ->group_leader. Change the code
to use ->group_exit_task/notify_count mechanics.

This patch certainly uglifies the code, perhaps someone can suggest something
better.
