[PATCH 1/2] signals: collect_signal: remove the unneeded sigismember() check

[Oleg Nesterov]

collect_signal() checks sigismember(&list->signal, sig), this is not needed.
This "sig" was just found by next_signal(), so it must be valid.

We have a (completely broken) call to ->notifier in between, but it must not
play with sigpending->signal bits or unlock ->siglock.
