Subject: ptrace_signal() subroutine
From: Roland McGrath <roland@xxxxxxxxxx>

This breaks out the ptrace handling from get_signal_to_deliver into a new
subroutine.  The actual code there doesn't change, and it gets inlined into
nearly identical compiled code.  This makes the function substantially shorter
and thus easier to read, and it nicely isolates the ptrace magic.
