[PATCH v2 1/2] signal: add the "int si_code" arg to prepare_kill_siginfo()

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Fri Feb 09 2024 - 08:07:59 EST


So that do_tkill() can use this helper too. This also simplifies
the next patch.

TODO: perhaps we can kill prepare_kill_siginfo() and change the
callers to use SEND_SIG_NOINFO, but this needs some changes in
__send_signal_locked() and TP_STORE_SIGINFO().
