Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the akpm-current tree

Hi all,

After merging the akpm-current tree, today's linux-next build (arm
multi_v7_defconfig) failed like this:

kernel/exit.c: In function 'reparent_leader':
kernel/exit.c:640:3: error: too few arguments to function 'group_send_sig_info'
   group_send_sig_info(p->signal->pdeath_signal_proc,
   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from include/linux/sched/signal.h:6:0,
                 from include/linux/sched/cputime.h:5,
                 from kernel/exit.c:14:
include/linux/signal.h:262:12: note: declared here
 extern int group_send_sig_info(int sig, struct siginfo *info,
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Caused by commit

  b04bd4d0117c ("prctl: add PR_[GS]ET_PDEATHSIG_PROC")

interacting with commit

  0102498083d5 ("signal: Pass pid type into group_send_sig_info")

from the uerns tree.

I have applied the following merge fix patch for today:
