[PATCH] Fix task state testing properly in do_signal_stop()
Any tests using < TASK_STOPPED or the like are left over from the time
when the TASK_ZOMBIE and TASK_DEAD bits were in the same word, and it
served to check for "stopped or dead". I think this one in
do_signal_stop is the only such case. It has been buggy ever since
exit_state was separated, and isn't testing the exit_state value.
