Subject: [patch v4 09/27] posix-timers: Make signal delivery consistent

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

Signals of timers which are reprogammed, disarmed or deleted can deliver
signals related to the past. The POSIX spec is blury about this:

 - "The effect of disarming or resetting a timer with pending expiration
   notifications is unspecified."

 - "The disposition of pending signals for the deleted timer is
    unspecified."

In both cases it is reasonable to expect that pending signals are
discarded. Especially in the reprogramming case it does not make sense to
account for previous overruns or to deliver a signal for a timer which has
been disarmed. This makes the behaviour consistent and understandable.

Remove the si_sys_private check from the signal delivery code and invoke
posix_timer_deliver_signal() unconditionally.

Change that function so it controls the actual signal delivery via the
return value. It now instructs the signal code to drop the signal when:

  1) The timer does not longer exist in the hash table

  2) The timer signal_seq value is not the same as the si_sys_private value
     which was set when the signal was queued.
