signal: Remove no longer required irqsave/restore
Commit a841796f ("signal: align __lock_task_sighand() irq disabling and RCU") introduced a rcu read side critical section with interrupts disabled. The changelog suggested that a better long-term fix would be "to make rt_mutex_unlock() disable irqs when acquiring the rt_mutex structure's ->wait_lock". This long-term fix has been made in commit b4abf910 ("rtmutex: Make wait_lock irq safe") for a different reason. Therefore revert commit a841796f ("signal: align > __lock_task_sighand() irq disabling and RCU") as the interrupt disable dance is not longer required. The change was tested on the base of b4abf910 ("rtmutex: Make wait_lock irq safe") with a four hour run of rcutorture scenario TREE03 with lockdep enabled as suggested by Paul McKenney.
