When init sub-threads running on different CPUs exit at the same time,
zap_pid_ns_processe()->BUG() may be happened(timing is as below),move
panic() before set PF_EXITING to fix this problem.

In addition,if panic() after other sub-threads finish do_exit(),
some key variables (task->mm,task->nsproxy etc) of sub-thread will be lost,
which makes it difficult to parse coredump from fulldump,checking 
SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT
to prevent init sub-threads exit.

V4:
- Changelog update

V3:
- Use group_dead instead of thread_group_empty() to test single init exit.

V2:
- Changelog update
- Remove wrong useage of SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE. 
- Add thread_group_empty() test to handle single init thread exit
