[PATCH 2/2] exec: Rename group_exit_task group_exec_task and correct the Documentation

[ebiederm@xmission.com (Eric W. Biederman)]

Rename group_exit_task to group_exec_task to make it clear this
field is only used during exec.

Update the comments for the fields group_exec_task and notify_count as
they are only used by exec.  Notifications to the execing task aka
group_exec_task happen at 0 and -1.
