signals: allow the kernel to actually kill /sbin/init

Browse source 
Currently the buggy /sbin/init hangs if SIGSEGV/etc happens.  The kernel sends
the signal, init dequeues it and ignores, returns from the exception, repeats
the faulting instruction, and so on forever.

Imho, such a behaviour is not good.  I think that the explicit loud death of
the buggy /sbin/init is better than the silent hang.

Change force_sig_info() to clear SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE when the task should be
really killed.
