The get_signal_page() function is defined in signal.c and used in
process.c but there is no shared definition. Add one in signal.h to
silence the following warning:
arch/arm/kernel/signal.c:683:13: warning: symbol 'get_signal_page' was not declared. Should it be static?

Signal handlers are not direct function pointers but pointers to function
descriptor in that case. Therefore we must retrieve the actual function
address and load the GOT value into r9 from the descriptor before branching
to the actual handler.
If a restorer is provided, we also have to load its address and GOT from
its descriptor. That descriptor address and the code to load it is pushed
onto the stack to be executed as soon as the signal handler returns.
However, to be compatible with NX stacks, the FDPIC bounce code is also
copied to the signal page along with the other code stubs. Therefore this
code must get at the descriptor address whether it executes from the stack
or the signal page. To do so we use the stack pointer which points at the
signal stack frame where the descriptor address was stored. Because the
rt signal frame is different from the simpler frame, two versions of the
bounce code are needed, and two variants (ARM and Thumb) as well. The
asm-offsets facility is used to determine the actual offset in the signal
frame for each version, meaning that struct sigframe and rt_sigframe had
to be moved to a separate file.

Move the signal handlers into a VDSO page rather than keeping them in
the vectors page. This allows us to place them randomly within this
page, and also map the page at a random location within userspace
further protecting these code fragments from ROP attacks. The new
VDSO page is also poisoned in the same way as the vector page.

This reverts commit fa18484d0947b976a769d15c83c50617493c81c1.
We need the restart trampoline back so that we can revert a related
problematic patch 6b5c8045ecc7e726cdaa2a9d9c8e5008050e1252 ("arm: new
way of handling ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK").

The signal restarting code was placed on the user stack when OABI
compatibility is enabled. Unfortunately, with an EABI NX executable,
this results in an attempt to run code from the non-executable stack,
which segfaults the application.
Fix this by placing the code in the vectors page, along side the
signal return code, and directing the application to that code.

The high page vector (0xFFFF0000) does not supported in nommu mode.
This patch allows the vectors to be 0x00000000 or the begining of DRAM
in nommu mode.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre
The signal return path consists of user code provided by the kernel.
Since a syscall is used, it has to be updated to work with EABI.
Noticed by Daniel Jacobowitz.

Move the signal return code into the vector page instead of placing
it on the user mode stack, which will allow us to avoid flushing
the instruction cache on signals, as well as eventually allowing
non-exec stack.
