5.4.54-rt33-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Matt Fleming <matt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The way user struct reference counting works changed significantly with,
fda31c50292a ("signal: avoid double atomic counter increments for user accounting")
Now user structs are only freed once the last pending signal is
dequeued. Make sigqueue_free_current() follow this new convention to
avoid freeing the user struct multiple times and triggering this
warning:
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
