  This patch simplify Linux sigqueue implementation by assuming
__NR_rt_sigqueueinfo existence due minimum kernel requirement.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sigqueue.c (__sigqueue): Asssume
	__NR_rt_sigqueueinfo.

OK, but please state in the commit message the oldest kernel version
that provided __NR_rt_sigqueueinfo on all architectures.

I am trying to find out exactly when realtime signals were introduced
on Linux and it seems it pre-dates git and so Linux 2.6.12 (commit
1da177e4 added both the headers and the systbl linkage on alpha
for instance).  I think stating it is present on Linux 2.6 should
be suffice.

Yeah, that's fine.  I just want there to be no confusion in the future.

I think you should go ahead and push the components of this patchset
that are fully reviewed and don't depend on other work, like this one
and the one cleaning up sigtimedwait and friends.

Right, I will push both the sigqueue and the sigtimedwait simplify.
