Subject[patch 3/8] uml: Fix SKAS sig-handler reentrancy [before 2.6.11]
From
Date

From: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com>, Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>
CC: uml-devel <user-mode-linux-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>

This adds code which enables SIGSEGV reception to the SKAS sig_handler_common,
which matches the tt code.

I still need to figure out why the SA_NODEFER flag was backed out in favor of this.
