      powerpc/spufs: Fix spinning in spufs_ps_fault on signal · 60657263
      Jeremy Kerr authored
      Currently, we can end up in an infinite loop if we get a signal
      while the kernel has faulted in spufs_ps_fault. Eg:
      
       alarm(1);
      
       write(fd, some_spu_psmap_register_address, 4);
      
      - the write's copy_from_user will fault on the ps mapping, and
      signal_pending will be non-zero. Because returning from the fault
      handler will never clear TIF_SIGPENDING, so we'll just keep faulting,
      resulting in an unkillable process using 100% of CPU.
      
      This change returns VM_FAULT_SIGBUS if there's a fatal signal pending,
      letting us escape the loop.
