This happens because do_notify_parent is called from the last thread to exit in a process after that thread has been reaped. The bigger issue is that do_notify_parent can be called from any process that manages to wait on a thread of a multi-threaded process from wait_task_zombie. So any logic based upon current for do_notify_parent is just nonsense, as current can be pretty much anything. So change do_notify_parent to call __send_signal directly. Inspecting the code it appears this problem has existed since the pid namespace support started handling this case in 2.6.30. This fix only backports to 7a0cf094944e ("signal: Correct namespace fixups of si_pid and si_uid") where the problem logic was moved out of __send_signal and into send_signal.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
