[REVIEW][PATCH 0/9] signal/powerpc: siginfo cleanups

[Eric W. Biederman]

This is the continuation of my work to sort out signaling of exceptions
with siginfo.  The old functions by passing siginfo resulted in many
cases of fields of siginfo that were not initialized and then passed to
userspace, and also resulted in callers getting confused and
initializing the wrong fields.  My remedy is to have specific functions
for sending each different kind of signal with siginfo.  Those functions
take the information needed to fill in siginfo and do the work
themselves.

This is my set of changes to update powerpc to use those functions.
Along with some refactoring so those functions can be cleanly used.

Folks please review and double check me.  I think I have kept these
changes simple and obviously correct but I am human and mess up
sometimes.

After these patches have had a chance to be reviewed I plan to merge
them by my siginfo tree.  If you would rather take them in the powerpc
tree let me know.   All of the prerequisites should have been merged
through Linus's tree several releases ago.
