The patch titled

This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged

The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: signal: retarget_shared_pending: optimize while_each_thread() loop
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>

retarget_shared_pending() blindly does recalc_sigpending_and_wake() for
every sub-thread, this is suboptimal.  We can check t->blocked and stop
looping once every bit in shared_pending has the new target.

Note: we do not take task_is_stopped_or_traced(t) into account, we are not
trying to speed up the signal delivery or to avoid the unnecessary (but
harmless) signal_wake_up(0) in this unlikely case.
