fae7649121 s390/signal: cleanup uapi struct sigaction
The struct sigaction for user space in arch/s390/include/uapi/asm/signal.h
is ill defined. The kernel uses two structures 'struct sigaction' and
'struct old_sigaction', the correlation in the kernel for both 31 and
64 bit is as follows

    sys_sigaction -> struct old_sigaction
    sys_rt_sigaction -> struct sigaction

The correlation of the (single) uapi definition for 'struct sigaction'
under '#ifndef __KERNEL__':

    31-bit: sys_sigaction -> uapi struct sigaction
    31-bit: sys_rt_sigaction -> no structure available

    64-bit: sys_sigaction -> no structure available
    64-bit: sys_rt_sigaction -> uapi struct sigaction

This is quite confusing. To make it a bit less confusing make the
uapi definition of 'struct sigaction' usable for sys_rt_sigaction for
both 31-bit and 64-bit.

6f52b16c5b License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2.  Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.

Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier.  The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception.  SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.  See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.
