Subject: [PATCH 032/353] signal: Revert ptrace preempt magic
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git/commit?id=644d41a2ad0eeb0b4c8f45d97302becdc9270125

Upstream commit '53da1d9456fe7f8 fix ptrace slowness' is nothing more
than a bandaid around the ptrace design trainwreck. It's not a
correctness issue, it's merily a cosmetic bandaid.
