[PATCH] kill sigqueue->lock
This lock is used in sigqueue_free(), but it is always equal to current->sighand->siglock, so we don't need to keep it in the struct sigqueue. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
