Yes. But this is only the current implementation detail.
It would be nice to cleanup the code so that EXIT_DEAD tasks are
never sit in ->children list.

See above...

Even if we modify do_wait() or add the new variant, how the caller
can wait for EXIT_DEAD tasks? I don't think we want to modify
release_task() to do __wake_up_parent() or something similar.
