Maybe that was needed before commit
7b3e2fc847c8325a7b35185fa1fc2f1729ed9c5b.  At that time
sys_sigsuspend() called do_signal() (which includes
setup_sigcontext()) directly.  So all registers must be saved to
kernel stack.

Now do_signal() is called only from do_notify_resume(), so I agree
save_static_function is not needed.
