md: don't use flush_signals in userspace processes 

commit f9c79bc05a2a91f4fba8bfd653579e066714b1ec upstream.

The function flush_signals clears all pending signals for the process. It
may be used by kernel threads when we need to prepare a kernel thread for
responding to signals. However using this function for an userspaces
processes is incorrect - clearing signals without the program expecting it
can cause misbehavior.

The raid1 and raid5 code uses flush_signals in its request routine because
it wants to prepare for an interruptible wait. This patch drops
flush_signals and uses sigprocmask instead to block all signals (including
SIGKILL) around the schedule() call. The signals are not lost, but the
schedule() call won't respond to them.
