We already have a small regression test for #15226 within the swraid
installer test. Unfortunately, we only check there whether the md
kthread got signalled but not whether other rampaging processes are
still alive that *should* have been killed.
So in order to do this we provide multiple canary processes which are
checked after the system has booted up:
* canary1: It's a simple forking daemon which just sleeps until it's
going to be killed. Of course we expect this process to not
be alive anymore after boot up.
* canary2: Similar to canary1, but tries to mimick a kthread to make
sure that it's going to be properly killed at the end of
stage 1.
* canary3: Like canary2, but this time using a @ in front of its
command name to actually prevent it from being killed.
* kcanary: This one is a real kthread and it runs until killed, which
shouldn't be the case.
