[PATCH 2/2] signal: after notifying a ptracer of a signal, recheck for pending SIGKILLs

[Kyle Huey]

ptrace_signal will release the siglock which could result in the current
task catching a SIGKILL that was not present on our first check in
get_signal. If that happens, bail out of the current signal and go
straight to the SIGKILL. This avoids setting up a frame for a signal
that the ptracer may not be notified of but that will be visible at
PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT.
