ocfs2: Wrap signal blocking in void functions.
ocfs2 sometimes needs to block signals around dlm operations, but it currently does it with sigprocmask(). Even worse, it's checking the error code of sigprocmask(). The in-kernel sigprocmask() can only error if you get the SIG_* argument wrong. We don't. Wrap the sigprocmask() calls with ocfs2_[un]block_signals(). These functions are void, but they will BUG() if somehow sigprocmask() returns an error. Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
