4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> commit ac25385089f673560867eb5179228a44ade0cfc1 upstream. Change sig_task_ignored() to drop the SIG_DFL && !sig_kernel_only() signals even if force == T. This simplifies the next change and this matches the same check in get_signal() which will drop these signals anyway.
