Subject: [PATCH 4.4 015/268] kernel/signal.c: avoid undefined behaviour in kill_something_info

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: zhongjiang <zhongjiang@...wei.com>

commit 4ea77014af0d6205b05503d1c7aac6eace11d473 upstream.

When running kill(72057458746458112, 0) in userspace I hit the following
issue.

  UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in kernel/signal.c:1462:11
  negation of -2147483648 cannot be represented in type 'int':
  CPU: 226 PID: 9849 Comm: test Tainted: G    B          ---- -------   3.10.0-327.53.58.70.x86_64_ubsan+ #116
  Hardware name: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. RH8100 V3/BC61PBIA, BIOS BLHSV028 11/11/2014
  Call Trace:
    dump_stack+0x19/0x1b
    ubsan_epilogue+0xd/0x50
    __ubsan_handle_negate_overflow+0x109/0x14e
    SYSC_kill+0x43e/0x4d0
    SyS_kill+0xe/0x10
    system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

Add code to avoid the UBSAN detection.
