    signals: tracehook_notify_jctl change · ae6d2ed7

    This changes tracehook_notify_jctl() so it's called with the siglock held,
    and changes its argument and return value definition.  These clean-ups
    make it a better fit for what new tracing hooks need to check.
    
    Tracing needs the siglock here, held from the time TASK_STOPPED was set,
    to avoid potential SIGCONT races if it wants to allow any blocking in its
    tracing hooks.
    
    This also folds the finish_stop() function into its caller
    do_signal_stop().  The function is short, called only once and only
    unconditionally.  It aids readability to fold it in.
