3.8.13.13 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Baruch Siach <baruch@xxxxxxxxxx> commit cba9a90053e3b7973eff4f1946f33032e98eeed5 upstream. According to create_thread(3): "The new thread does not inherit the creating thread's alternate signal stack". Since commit f9a3879a (Fix sigaltstack corruption among cloned threads), current->sas_ss_size is set to 0 for cloned processes sharing VM with their parent. Don't use the (nonexistent) alternate signal stack in this case. This has been broken since commit 29c4dfd9 ([XTENSA] Remove non-rt signal handling). Fixes the SA_ONSTACK part of the nptl/tst-cancel20 test from uClibc.
