Subject: [PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 161/305] um: Fix get_signal() usage

4.2.8-ckt2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Richard Weinberger <richard@....at>

commit db2f24dc240856fb1d78005307f1523b7b3c121b upstream.

If get_signal() returns us a signal to post
we must not call it again, otherwise the already
posted signal will be overridden.
Before commit a610d6e672d this was the case as we stopped
the while after a successful handle_signal().

Fixes: a610d6e672d ("pull clearing RESTORE_SIGMASK into block_sigmask()")
