[PATCH v4 08/10] powerpc/signal64: Rewrite handle_rt_signal64() to minimise uaccess switches

[Christopher M. Riedl]

From: Daniel Axtens <dja at axtens.net>

Add uaccess blocks and use the 'unsafe' versions of functions doing user
access where possible to reduce the number of times uaccess has to be
opened/closed.

There is no 'unsafe' version of copy_siginfo_to_user, so move it
slightly to allow for a "longer" uaccess block.
