Mateusz Guzik 8a56f26607 signal: avoid clearing TIF_SIGPENDING in recalc_sigpending() if unset
Clearing is an atomic op and the flag is not set most of the time.

When creating and destroying threads in the same process with the pthread
family, the primary bottleneck is calls to sigprocmask which take the
process-wide sighand lock.

Avoiding the atomic gives me a 2% bump in start/teardown rate at 24-core
scale.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: add unlikely() as well]

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 reStructuredText 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.
