I'm still unsure as to the best way to fix this, and there was no
response to the original mail I posted about it either:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=133879579014853&w=2
I'll fetch a powerpc cross compiler and see if I can figure out what went
wrong.
We can always bite the bullet and stuff it in the sh thread_info.h, but
that's papering around the issue, and any other TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK &&
!HAVE_SET_RESTORE_SIGMASK generic bug user will have to use the same
hack.
