[LTP] [PATCH] mem/mmapstress10: fix hangs with recent glibc

There haven't been any major changes to this test in years,
so presumably something in recent glibc changed, that exposed
this problem.
I confirmed with glibc-2.28, that this test can hang quite reliably
on 2 CPU KVM guest. It reproduces easier with smaller number of loops
for child_mapper() and overall test runtime reduced (-p 20 -t 0.02).
The problem is that childs' signal handler and main function both
call exit(), which can deadlock on __exit_funcs_lock:
#0 0x00007f0619d72f8c in __lll_lock_wait_private () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#1 0x00007f0619ca2f4b in __run_exit_handlers () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#2 0x00007f0619ca3160 in exit () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#3 0x00000000004039d8 in clean_mapper (sig=<optimized out>) at mmapstress10.c:898
#4 <signal handler called>
#5 0x00007f0619ca2fbd in __run_exit_handlers () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#6 0x00007f0619ca3160 in exit () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#7 0x0000000000403e7f in child_mapper (file=file@entry=0x40f530 "mmapstress10.out", procno=<optimized out>,
nprocs=nprocs@entry=20) at mmapstress10.c:676
#8 0x0000000000403833 in main (argc=<optimized out>, argv=<optimized out>) at mmapstress10.c:458
Switch all signal handlers to _exit().
