[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 2/2] drmtest: Avoid wrong PID/TID after clone races

From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin at intel.com>
Various C library implementations have various races with regards
to caching getpid() or TID inside pthread_kill() implementations.
For example see clone(2) glibc man page and pthread_kill
Bionic C library source.
Work around that by making sure correct PID/TGID and TID values
are retrieved from the kernel when re-raising the signal. It
can be delivered immediately after the clone system call while C
library cached copies have not yet been updated.
