signals: zap_pid_ns_process() should use force_sig()
send_signal() assumes that signals with SEND_SIG_PRIV are generated from within the same namespace. So any nested container-init processes become immune to the SIGKILL generated by kill_proc_info() in zap_pid_ns_processes(). Use force_sig() in zap_pid_ns_processes() instead - force_sig() clears the SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE flag ensuring the signal is processed by container-inits.
