signals, ptrace, sched: Fix a misaligned load inside ptrace_attach()

The misaligned load exception arises when running ptrace_attach() on
the RISC-V (which hasn't been upstreamed yet).  The problem is that
wait_on_bit() takes a void* but then proceeds to call test_bit(),
which takes a long*.  This allows an int-aligned pointer to be passed
to test_bit(), which promptly fails.  This will manifest on any other
asm-generic port where unaligned loads trap, where sizeof(long) >
sizeof(int), and where task_struct.jobctl ends up not being
long-aligned.

This patch changes task_struct.jobctl to be a long, which ensures it
has the correct alignment.
