Ingo Molnar c3edc4010e sched/headers: Move task_struct::signal and task_struct::sighand types and accessors into <linux/sched/signal.h>
task_struct::signal and task_struct::sighand are pointers, which would normally make it
straightforward to not define those types in sched.h.

That is not so, because the types are accompanied by a myriad of APIs (macros and inline
functions) that dereference them.

Split the types and the APIs out of sched.h and move them into a new header, <linux/sched/signal.h>.

With this change sched.h does not know about 'struct signal' and 'struct sighand' anymore,
trying to put accessors into sched.h as a test fails the following way:

  ./include/linux/sched.h: In function ‘test_signal_types’:
  ./include/linux/sched.h:2461:18: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type ‘struct signal_struct’
                    ^

This reduces the size and complexity of sched.h significantly.

Update all headers and .c code that relied on getting the signal handling
functionality from <linux/sched.h> to include <linux/sched/signal.h>.

The list of affected files in the preparatory patch was partly generated by
grepping for the APIs, and partly by doing coverage build testing, both
all[yes|mod|def|no]config builds on 64-bit and 32-bit x86, and an array of
cross-architecture builds.

Nevertheless some (trivial) build breakage is still expected related to rare
Kconfig combinations and in-flight patches to various kernel code, but most
of it should be handled by this patch.
