From: Christian Brauner <[email protected]>
Since this is mirroring kthread's sig ignore api introduced in
commit 10ab825bdef8 ("change kernel threads to ignore signals instead of
blocking them")
this patch adds an option flag, USER_WORKER_SIG_IGN, handled in
copy_process() after copy_sighand() and copy_signals() to ease the
transition from kthreads to this new api.
