[PATCH v4 5/5] powerpc/signal: Use unsafe_copy_siginfo_to_user()

[Christophe Leroy]

Use unsafe_copy_siginfo_to_user() in order to do the copy
within the user access block.

On an mpc 8321 (book3s/32) the improvment is about 5% on a process
sending a signal to itself.

v4: Use another approach for compat: drop the unsafe_copy_siginfo_to_user32(), instead directly call copy_siginfo_to_external32() before user_access_begin()

v3: Don't leave compat aside, use the new unsafe_copy_siginfo_to_user32()
