ptrace: do_notify_parent_cldstop: fix the wrong ->nsproxy usage
If the non-traced sub-thread calls do_notify_parent_cldstop(), we send the
notification to group_leader->real_parent and we report group_leader's
pid.

But, if group_leader is traced we use the wrong ->parent->nsproxy->pid_ns,
the tracer and parent can live in different namespaces.  Change the code
to use "parent" instead of tsk->parent.
