signal: make force_sigsegv() void
Patch series "signal: refactor some functions", v3. This series refactors a bunch of functions in signal.c to simplify parts of the code. The greatest single change is declaring the static do_sigpending() helper as void which makes it possible to remove a bunch of unnecessary checks in the syscalls later on. This patch (of 17): force_sigsegv() returned 0 unconditionally so it doesn't make sense to have it return at all. In addition, there are no callers that check force_sigsegv()'s return value.
