[PATCH] signal/x86: Don't send SIGSEGV twice on SEGV_PKUERR
From: Jiashuo Liang
Date: Tue Jun 01 2021 - 04:54:05 EST
Before this patch, the __bad_area_nosemaphore function calls both
force_sig_pkuerr and force_sig_fault when handling SEGV_PKUERR. This does
not cause problems because the second signal is filtered by the
legacy_queue check in __send_signal. But it causes the kernel to do
unnecessary work.
This patch should fix it.
Fixes: 9db812dbb29d ("signal/x86: Call force_sig_pkuerr from __bad_area_nosemaphore")
