kernel: fix pexit() Waitmsg memory leak.
when a process got forked with RFNOWAIT, its p->parent will still point to the parent process, but its p->parentpid == 0. this causes the "parent still alive" check in pexit to get confused as it only checked p->pid == up->parentpid. this condition is *TRUE* in the case of RFNOWAIT when the parent process is actually dead (p->pid == 0) so we attached the wait structure to the dead parent leaking the memory.
