Subject: [PATCH v2 42/43] dlm: Remove another superfluous call to recalc_sigpending()

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@...el.com>

recalc_sigpending() is called within sigprocmask(), so there is no
need call it again after sigprocmask() has returned. Furthermore, the
call to recalc_sigpending() could race with signal_wake_up() because
it isn't called with sighand->siglock held. I must have missed this
call when removing the other recalc_sigpending() in commit
4bcad6c1ef53 ("dlm: Remove superfluous call to recalc_sigpending())".
