Change oom_kill_task() to use do_send_sig_info(SEND_SIG_FORCED) instead
of force_sig(SIGKILL).  With the recent changes we do not need force_ to
kill the CLONE_NEWPID tasks.

And this is more correct.  force_sig() can race with the exiting thread
even if oom_kill_task() checks p->mm != NULL, while
do_send_sig_info(group => true) kille the whole process.
