ptrace: fix possible zombie leak on PTRACE_DETACH
When ptrace_detach() takes tasklist, the tracee can be SIGKILL'ed. If it has already passed exit_notify() we can leak a zombie, because a) ptracing disables the auto-reaping logic, and b) ->real_parent was not notified about the child's death. ptrace_detach() should follow the ptrace_exit's logic, change the code accordingly.
