proc, oom: drop bogus sighand lock
Oleg has pointed out that can simplify both oom_adj_{read,write} and oom_score_adj_{read,write} even further and drop the sighand lock. The main purpose of the lock was to protect p->signal from going away but this will not happen since ea6d290c ("signals: make task_struct->signal immutable/refcountable"). The other role of the lock was to synchronize different writers, especially those with CAP_SYS_RESOURCE. Introduce a mutex for this purpose. Later patches will need this lock anyway.
