SubjectRe: [RFC] decrease tsk->signal->live before profile_task_exit

I don't think that would be wise.

Any additional code before the sanity checks at the start of do_exit
seems like a bad idea.

We could probably move the decrement of tsk->signal->live a little
earlier, but not that much earlier in the function.

Does profile_task_exit even make sense that early in the code? If the
code is doing much of anything that is a completely inappopriate
placement of profile_task_exit.
