From 9a13049e83f346cb1cbd60c64e520a73c396af16 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2015 16:32:25 -0800 Subject: signal: introduce kernel_signal_stop() to fix jffs2_garbage_collect_thread() jffs2_garbage_collect_thread() can race with SIGCONT and sleep in TASK_STOPPED state after it was already sent. Add the new helper, kernel_signal_stop(), which does this correctly.
