[PATCH] /dev/[k]mem: make reads and writes interruptible
From: Jason A. Donenfeld
Date: Wed Apr 06 2022 - 20:14:33 EST
In 8619e5bdeee8 ("/dev/mem: Bail out upon SIGKILL."), /dev/[k]mem became
killable, and that commit noted:
Theoretically, reading/writing /dev/mem and /dev/kmem can become
"interruptible". But this patch chose "killable". Future patch will
make them "interruptible" so that we can revert to "killable" if
some program regressed.
So now we take the next step in making it "interruptible", by changing
fatal_signal_pending() into signal_pending().
