OK, so for today, I have reverted these commits from Al's signal tree: c1eafa6fc84a "arm: pull all work_pending logics into C function" 9c802c169f96 "arm: deal with handlerless restarts without leaving the kernel" 76c3f4da3ee4 "arm: get rid of TIF_SYSCALL_RESTARTSYS" (I was not sure if I needed to revert the first of these.) -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
