Subject: do_sigaction: remove now unneeded recalc_sigpending()
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>
With the recent changes, do_sigaction()->recalc_sigpending_and_wake() can
never clear TIF_SIGPENDING. Instead, it can set this flag and wake up the
thread without any reason. Harmless, but unneeded and wastes CPU.
