The code in linux_proc_exit() contains a race when multiple linux based

processes exits at the same time.  The linux_emuldata structure is freed
but p->p_emuldata is left as a dangling pointer to the just freed memory.

The check for W_EXIT in the loop scanning the child processes isn't safe
since the state of the child process can change right afterwards. Lock
the process and check the W_EXIT before delivering signal.
