Jiri Olsa 5e219b3c67 x86/signals: Propagate RF EFLAGS bit through the signal restore call 
While porting Vince's perf overflow tests I found perf event
breakpoint overflow does not work properly.

I found the x86 RF EFLAG bit not being set when returning
from debug exception after triggering signal handler. Which
is exactly what you get when you set perf breakpoint overflow
SIGIO handler.

This patch and the next two patches fix the underlying bugs.

This patch adds the RF EFLAGS bit to be restored on return from
signal from the original register context before the signal was
entered.

This will prevent the RF flag to disappear when returning
from exception due to the signal handler being executed.
