Unfortunately this violates the lock ordering of always taking a task group lock after taking pids_lock. |

I have corrected the timing of locking the pids_lock in the do_exit function to be before mm_release.
The reason for this fix is that there was a potential for invalid memory access when executing processes related to /proc/{pid}, specifically when memory for the struct task member is freed during the process (this issue occurred during the execution of tmux). Additionally, there was a problem where resources locked during operations on /proc/{pid} were being released in do_exit, leading to further issues, so I addressed and fixed that as well.
