I've recently discussed this with Martin Schwidefsky for an unrelated reason,
but I think now that you should define the sigcontext independent of pt_regs.
The pt_regs should really be internal

I hadn't noticed this earlier, but I think you can remove the struct sigframe
definition. There should be absolutely no need to have both sigframe and
rt_sigframe.
