There's two different paths through the sigreturn code, depending on whether the VDSO is mapped or not. We recently discovered a bug in the unmapped case, because it's not commonly used these days. So add a test that sends itself a signal, then moves the VDSO, takes another signal and finally unmaps the VDSO before sending itself another signal. That tests the standard signal path, the code that handles the VDSO being moved, and also the signal path in the case where the VDSO is unmapped.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
