signal: refactor copy_siginfo_to_user32
Factor out a copy_siginfo_to_external32 helper from copy_siginfo_to_user32 that fills out the compat_siginfo, but does so on a kernel space data structure. With that we can let architectures override copy_siginfo_to_user32 with their own implementations using copy_siginfo_to_external32. That allows moving the x32 SIGCHLD purely to x86 architecture code. As a nice side effect copy_siginfo_to_external32 also comes in handy for avoiding a set_fs() call in the coredump code later on. Contains improvements from Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> and Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
