    proc: turn signal_struct->count into "int nr_threads" · b3ac022c

    No functional changes, just s/atomic_t count/int nr_threads/.
    
    With the recent changes this counter has a single user, get_nr_threads()
    And, none of its callers need the really accurate number of threads, not
    to mention each caller obviously races with fork/exit.  It is only used to
    report this value to the user-space, except first_tid() uses it to avoid
    the unnecessary while_each_thread() loop in the unlikely case.
    
    It is a bit sad we need a word in struct signal_struct for this, perhaps
    we can change get_nr_threads() to approximate the number of threads using
    signal->live and kill ->nr_threads later.
