We already discussed this, this is not so important, but how about

void recalc_sigpending_and_wake(struct task_struct *t)
{
int was_pending = signal_pending(t);

if (recalc_sigpending_tsk(t) && !was_pending)
signal_wake_up(t, 0);
}

?

This "was_pending" is more a documenation than a optimization.
