ptrace: don't clear GROUP_STOP_SIGMASK on double-stop
[This does not correspond to any specific patch in the upstream tree as it was fixed accidentally by rewriting the code in the 3.1 release] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=740121 1. Luke Macken triggered WARN_ON(!(group_stop & GROUP_STOP_SIGMASK)) in do_signal_stop(). This is because do_signal_stop() clears GROUP_STOP_SIGMASK part unconditionally but doesn't update it if task_is_stopped(). 2. Looking at this problem I noticed that WARN_ON_ONCE(!ptrace) is not right, a stopped-but-resumed tracee can clone the untraced thread in the SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED group, the new thread can start another group-stop. Remove this warning, we need more fixes to make it true.
