Subject: x86: signal: sys_rt_sigreturn() should use sigprocmask()
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>

Normally sys_rt_sigreturn() restores the old current->blocked which was
changed by handle_signal(), and unblocking is always fine.

But the debugger or application itself can change frame->uc_sigmask and
thus we need sigprocmask()->retarget_shared_pending().
