- add disallow_signal() to complement allow_signal(), rather than having different subsystems try to do it by hand. - add a version of dequeue_signal() which does the necessary locking on its own, again to avoid having modules have to care. - let allow_signal() to actually allow signals other than SIGKILL. Currently they get either converted to SIGKILL or silently dropped, according to whether your kernel thread happens to have sa_handler set for the signal in question. (Barf alert: we do this by just installing a dummy handler) - make jffs2 use the cleaned up infrastructure
