Now that send_signal always delivers SEND_SIG_PRIV signals to a pid
namespace init it is no longer necessary to use SEND_SIG_FORCED when
calling do_send_sig_info to ensure that pid namespace inits are
signaled and possibly killed. Using SEND_SIG_PRIV is sufficient.
So use SEND_SIG_PRIV so that userspace when it receives a SIGTERM can
tell that the kernel sent the signal and not some random userspace
application.
