Eric W. Biederman 6487d1dab8 ptrace: Return the signal to continue with from ptrace_stop
The signal a task should continue with after a ptrace stop is
inconsistently read, cleared, and sent.  Solve this by reading and
clearing the signal to be sent in ptrace_stop.

In an ideal world everything except ptrace_signal would share a common
implementation of continuing with the signal, so ptracers could count
on the signal they ask to continue with actually being delivered.  For
now retain bug compatibility and just return with the signal number
the ptracer requested the code continue with.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
