Subject: [ 24/47] arch/tile: apply commit 74fca9da0 to the compat signal handling as well

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

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

From: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@...era.com>

commit a134d228298c6aa9007205c6b81cae0cac0acb5d upstream.

This passes siginfo and mcontext to tilegx32 signal handlers that
don't have SA_SIGINFO set just as we have been doing for tilegx64.
