[PATCH -mm 1/3] nbd: nbd_thread_send: remove the unnecessary kernel_dequeue_signal()

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Sun Oct 25 2015 - 10:30:58 EST


nbd_thread_send() does kernel_dequeue_signal() at the end for no reason,
it is fine to exit with the pending SIGKILL.

Not sure it really needs another kernel_dequeue_signal() inside the
main loop, we know that signal_pending() means SIGKILL. But probably
we want to clear TIF_SIGPENDING before sock_shutdown().
