usermodehelper: kill the kmod_thread_locker logic Now that we do not call kernel_thread(CLONE_VFORK) from the worker thread we can not deadlock if do_execve() in turn triggers another call_usermodehelper(), we can remove the kmod_thread_locker code. Note: we should probably kill khelper_wq and simply use one of the global workqueues, say, system_unbound_wq, this special wq for umh buys nothing nowadays.
