[RFC 1/7] Remove declaration of sighand_cachep from slab.h

From: Christoph Lameter
Date: Sat Nov 18 2006 - 00:44:47 EST


Remove declaration of sighand_cachep from slab.h

The sighand cache is only used in fs/exec.c and kernel/fork.c. It is defined
in kernel/fork.c but also used in fs/exec.c. So add an extern declaration to
fs/exec.c and remove the definition from slab.h.
