xfsdump contains a couple wrapper functions which block signals

not been enabled for a long time. Remove the wrappers rather than
converting them to use the POSIX signal API.

Looks good,

Any idea what this code was used for?  Driver-specific open quirks on
IRIX?

Not sure, but probably something along those lines. The original
revision in the IRIX tree has the OPENMASKED code, but it too
is not enabled.

Thanks for the review.

Bill
