[PATCH] coredump: optimize ->mm users traversal

zap_threads() iterates over all threads to find those ones which share
current->mm.  All threads in the thread group share the same ->mm, so we can
skip entire thread group if it has another ->mm.

This patch shifts the killing of thread group into the newly added
zap_process() function.  This looks as unnecessary complication, but it is
used in further patches.
