Subject: [PATCH 4.19 04/91] staging: android: ion: Bail out upon SIGKILL when allocating memory.

From: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@...ove.SAKURA.ne.jp>

commit 8f9e86ee795971eabbf372e6d804d6b8578287a7 upstream.

syzbot found that a thread can stall for minutes inside
ion_system_heap_allocate() after that thread was killed by SIGKILL [1].
Let's check for SIGKILL before doing memory allocation.
