      ====================
      tipc: purge signal handler infrastructure
      
      When we delay some actions to be executed in asynchronous contexts,
      these usually add unnecessary code complexities, and make their
      behaviours unpredictable and indeterministic. Moreover, as the signal
      handler infrastructure is first stopped when tipc module is removed,
      this may cause some potential risks for us. For instance, although
      signal handler is already stopped, some tipc components still submit
      signal requests to signal handler infrastructure, which may lead to
      some resources not to be released or freed correctly.
      
      So the series aims to convert all actions being performed in tasklet
      context asynchronously with interface provided by signal handler
      infrastructure to be executed synchronously, thereby deleting the
      whole infrastructure of signal handler.

      In the previous commits of this series, we removed all asynchronous
      actions which were based on the tasklet handler - "tipc_k_signal()".
      
      So the moment has now come when we can completely remove the tasklet
      handler infrastructure. That is done with this commit.
