[PATCH v10 4/8] fork: Add USER_WORKER flag to ignore signals

[Mike Christie <michael.christie@oracle.com>]

From: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>

Since:

commit 10ab825bdef8 ("change kernel threads to ignore signals instead of
blocking them")

kthreads have been ignoring signals by default, and the vhost layer has
never had a need to change that. This patch adds an option flag,
USER_WORKER_SIG_IGN, handled in copy_process() after copy_sighand()
and copy_signals() so vhost_tasks added in the next patches can continue
to ignore singals.
