<title>all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_struct</title>

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target.  This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.

Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.

Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.

It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

The mainline signal handling code for OpenRISC has been buggy since day
one with respect to syscall restart.  This patch significantly reworks
the signal handling code:

i)   Move the "work pending" loop to C code (borrowed from ARM arch)

ii)  Allow a tracer to muck about with the IP and skip syscall restart
     in that case (again, borrowed from ARM)

iii) Make signal handling WRT syscall restart actually work

v)   Make the signal handling code look more like that of other
     architectures so that it's easier for others to follow

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler();  called when
sigframe has been successfully built.  All architectures converted
to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one).

I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate
story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number +
siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one,
signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() -
take one).

Only 3 out of 63 do not.  Renamed the current variant to __set_current_blocked(),
added set_current_blocked() that will exclude unblockable signals, switched
open-coded instances to it.
