Linus Torvalds 0214f46b3a Merge branch 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull core signal handling updates from Eric Biederman:
 "It was observed that a periodic timer in combination with a
  sufficiently expensive fork could prevent fork from every completing.
  This contains the changes to remove the need for that restart.

  This set of changes is split into several parts:

   - The first part makes PIDTYPE_TGID a proper pid type instead
     something only for very special cases. The part starts using
     PIDTYPE_TGID enough so that in __send_signal where signals are
     actually delivered we know if the signal is being sent to a a group
     of processes or just a single process.

   - With that prep work out of the way the logic in fork is modified so
     that fork logically makes signals received while it is running
     appear to be received after the fork completes"
