[IA64] Delete MCA/INIT sigdelayed code
The only user of the MCA/INIT sigdelayed code (SGI's I/O probing) has moved from the kernel into SAL. Delete the MCA/INIT sigdelayed code. Signed-off-by: Keith Owens <kaos@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

-/* Set a delayed signal that was detected in MCA/INIT/NMI/PMI context where it
- * could not be delivered. It is important that the target process is not
- * allowed to do any more work in user space. Possible cases for the target
- * process:
- *
- * - It is sleeping and will wake up soon. Store the data in the current task,
- * the signal will be sent when the current task returns from the next
- * interrupt.
- *
- * - It is running in user context. Store the data in the current task, the
- * signal will be sent when the current task returns from the next interrupt.
- *
- * - It is running in kernel context on this or another cpu and will return to
- * user context. Store the data in the target task, the signal will be sent
- * to itself when the target task returns to user space.
- *
- * - It is running in kernel context on this cpu and will sleep before
- * returning to user context. Because this is also the current task, the
- * signal will not get delivered and the task could sleep indefinitely.
- * Store the data in the idle task for this cpu, the signal will be sent
- * after the idle task processes its next interrupt.
- *
- * To cover all cases, store the data in the target task, the current task and
- * the idle task on this cpu. Whatever happens, the signal will be delivered
- * to the target task before it can do any useful user space work. Multiple
- * deliveries have no unwanted side effects.
- *
- * Note: This code is executed in MCA/INIT/NMI/PMI context, with interrupts
- * disabled. It must not take any locks nor use kernel structures or services
- * that require locks.
