[PATCH] x86: do_signal: simplify the TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK logic

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Sun Jul 10 2011 - 14:25:02 EST


1. do_signal() looks at TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK and calculates the
mask which should be stored in the signal frame, then it
passes "oldset" to the callees, down to setup_rt_frame().

This is ugly, setup_rt_frame() can do this itself and nobody
else needs this sigset_t. Move this code into setup_rt_frame.

2. do_signal() also clears TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK if handle_signal()
succeeds.

We can move this to setup_rt_frame() as well, this avoids the
unnecessary checks and makes the logic more clear.

3. use set_current_blocked() instead of sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK),
sigprocmask() should be avoided.
