[PATCH 14/20] signal: Push pid type down into __send_signal

From: Eric W. Biederman
Date: Mon Jul 23 2018 - 23:28:08 EST


This information is already available in the callers and by pushing it
down it makes the code a little clearer, and allows implementing
better handling of signales set to a group of processes in fork.
