[PATCH v3 10/13] x86/um: nommu: signal handling

This commit updates the behavior of signal handling under !MMU
environment. 1) the stack preparation for the signal handlers and
2) restoration of stack after rt_sigreturn(2) syscall.  Those are needed
as the stack usage on vfork(2) syscall is different.

It also adds the follow up routine for SIGSEGV as a signal delivery runs
in the same stack frame while we have to avoid endless SIGSEGV.
