So, forever, we've had this ptrace_signal_deliver implementation
which tries to handle all of the nasties that can occur when the
debugger looks at a process about to take a signal.  It's meant
to address all of these issues inside of the kernel so that the
debugger need not be mindful of such things.

Problem is, this doesn't work.

The idea was that we should do the syscall restart business first, so
that the debugger captures that state.  Otherwise, if the debugger for
example saves the child's state, makes the child execute something
else, then restores the saved state, we won't handle the syscall
restart properly because we lose the "we're in a syscall" state.

The code here worked for most cases, but if the debugger actually
passes the signal through to the child unaltered, it's possible that
we would do a syscall restart when we shouldn't have.

In particular this breaks the case of debugging a process under a gdb
which is being debugged by yet another gdb.  gdb uses sigsuspend
to wait for SIGCHLD of the inferior, but if gdb itself is being
debugged by a top-level gdb we get a ptrace_stop().  The top-level gdb
does a PTRACE_CONT with SIGCHLD to let the inferior gdb see the
signal.  But ptrace_signal_deliver() assumed the debugger would cancel
out the signal and therefore did a syscall restart, because the return
error was ERESTARTNOHAND.

Fix this by simply making ptrace_signal_deliver() a nop, and providing
a way for the debugger to control system call restarting properly:

1) Report a "in syscall" software bit in regs->{tstate,psr}.
   It is set early on in trap entry to a system call and is fully
   visible to the debugger via ptrace() and regsets.

2) Test this bit right before doing a syscall restart.  We have
   to do a final recheck right after get_signal_to_deliver() in
   case the debugger cleared the bit during ptrace_stop().

3) Clear the bit in trap return so we don't accidently try to set
   that bit in the real register.

As a result we also get a ptrace_{is,clear}_syscall() for sparc32 just
like sparc64 has.

M68K has this same exact bug, and is now the only other user of the
ptrace_signal_deliver hook.  It needs to be fixed in the same exact
way as sparc.

It alises IRQF_SHARED which causes all kinds of

New file - asm-generic/signal.h.  Contains declarations of
__sighandler_t, __sigrestore_t, SIG_DFL, SIG_IGN, SIG_ERR and default
definitions of SIG_BLOCK, SIG_UNBLOCK and SIG_SETMASK.

asm-*/signal.h switched to including it.  The only exception is
asm-parisc/signal.h that wants its own declaration of __sighandler_t;
that one is left as-is.

asm-ppc64/signal.h required one more thing - unlike everybody else it
used __sigrestorer_t instead of usual __sigrestore_t.  PPC64 switched to
common spelling.

The attached patch moves the IRQ-related SA_xxx flags (namely, SA_PROBE,
SA_SAMPLE_RANDOM and SA_SHIRQ) from all the arch-specific headers to
linux/signal.h.  This looks like a left-over after the irq-handling code
was consolidated.  The code was moved to kernel/irq/*, but the flags are
still left per-arch.

Right now, adding a new IRQ flag to the arch-specific header, like this
patch does:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/alsa/alsa-driver/utils/patches/pcsp-kernel-2.6.10-03.diff?rev=1.1
no longer works, it breaks the compilation for all other arches, unless you
add that flag to all the other arch-specific headers too.  So I think such
a clean-up makes sense.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
