fork: fix error handling in dup_task()

The function dup_task() may fail at the following function calls in the
following order.

0) alloc_task_struct_node()
1) alloc_thread_info_node()
2) arch_dup_task_struct()

Error by 0) is not a matter, it can just return.  But error by 1) requires
releasing task_struct allocated by 0) before it returns.  Likewise, error
by 2) requires releasing task_struct and thread_info allocated by 0) and
1).

The existing error handling calls free_task_struct() and
free_thread_info() which do not only release task_struct and thread_info,
but also call architecture specific arch_release_task_struct() and
arch_release_thread_info().

The problem is that task_struct and thread_info are not fully initialized
yet at this point, but arch_release_task_struct() and
arch_release_thread_info() are called with them.

For example, x86 defines its own arch_release_task_struct() that releases
a task_xstate.  If alloc_thread_info_node() fails in dup_task(),
arch_release_task_struct() is called with task_struct which is just
allocated and filled with garbage in this error handling.

This actually happened with tools/testing/fault-injection/failcmd.sh

	# env FAILCMD_TYPE=fail_page_alloc \
		./tools/testing/fault-injection/failcmd.sh --times=100 \
		--min-order=0 --ignore-gfp-wait=0 \
		-- make -C tools/testing/selftests/ run_tests

In order to fix this issue, make free_{task_struct,thread_info}() not to
call arch_release_{task_struct,thread_info}() and call
arch_release_{task_struct,thread_info}() implicitly where needed.

Default arch_release_task_struct() and arch_release_thread_info() are
defined as empty by default.  So this change only affects the
architectures which implement their own arch_release_task_struct() or
arch_release_thread_info() as listed below.

arch_release_task_struct(): x86, sh
arch_release_thread_info(): mn10300, tile
