Subject: [PATCH 2/2] signals: eventpoll: set ->saved_sigmask at the start

task_struct->saved_sigmask has no meaning unless we return with
set_restore_sigmask() and nobody except current can use it.

This means that sys_epoll_pwait() doesn't need to save ->blocked
into the local var and then memcopy it into ->saved_sigmask, we
can simply set ->saved_sigmask right before set_current_blocked().
