Previously setup_sigcontext() performed a costly KUAP switch on every uaccess operation. These repeated uaccess switches cause a significant drop in signal handling performance. Rewrite setup_sigcontext() to assume that a userspace write access window is open by replacing all uaccess functions with their 'unsafe' versions. Modify the callers to first open, call unsafe_setup_sigcontext() and then close the uaccess window. Signed-off-by: Christopher M.

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.
