Oleg Nesterov 571999ccd1 signal: avoid unconditional siginfo copy in send_signal_locked()
send_signal_locked() unconditionally copies siginfo before the namespace
translation to avoid corrupting a shared siginfo.

Not that I think this can actually hurt performance-wise, just it doesn't
look clean to me; the copy is only needed in the unlikely case when the
translation will actually change something.

Defer it to the two cases where si_pid/si_uid are rewritten, and while at
it add #ifdef's just for completeness.
