Subject: [PATCH 3.16 135/202] Clean up signal_delivered()

3.16.66-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

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

commit 10b1c7ac8bfed429cf3dcb0225482c8dc1485d8e upstream.

 - Pass a ksignal struct to it
 - Remove unused regs parameter
 - Make it private as it's nowhere outside of kernel/signal.c is used

Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@....at>
[bwh: Backported to 3.16 as dependency of commit 35634ffa1751
 "signal: Always notice exiting tasks"]
