Oleg Nesterov 7f6def9f9b 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.
