signal: Simplify and fix kdb_send_sig
- Rename from kdb_send_sig_info to kdb_send_sig
As there is no meaningful siginfo sent
- Use SEND_SIG_PRIV instead of generating a siginfo for a kdb
signal. The generated siginfo had a bogus rationale and was
not correct in the face of pid namespaces. SEND_SIG_PRIV
is simpler and actually correct.
- As the code grabs siglock just send the signal with siglock
held instead of dropping siglock and attempting to grab it again.
- Move the sig_valid test into kdb_kill where it can generate
a good error message.
