parentkernel: fix is_single_threaded (diff)

kernel: rename is_single_threaded(task) to current_is_single_threaded(void)
- is_single_threaded(task) is not safe unless task == current, we can't use task->signal or task->mm. - it doesn't make sense unless task == current, the task can fork right after the check. Rename it to current_is_single_threaded() and kill the argument.
