signals: Move put_compat_sigset to compat.h to silence hardened usercopy
Since commit afcc90f8621e ("usercopy: WARN() on slab cache usercopy region violations"), MIPS systems booting with a compat root filesystem emit a warning when copying compat siginfo to userspace: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 953 at mm/usercopy.c:81 usercopy_warn+0x98/0xe8 Bad or missing usercopy whitelist? Kernel memory exposure attempt detected from SLAB object 'task_struct' (offset 1432, size 16)!

However, this is not true in the case of compat signals, whose sigset is copied by put_compat_sigset and receives size as an argument. At most call sites, put_compat_sigset is copying a sigset from the current task_struct. This triggers a warning when CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY is active. However, by marking this function as static inline, the warning can be avoided because in all of these cases the size is constant at compile time, which is allowed. The only site where this is not the case is handling the rt_sigpending syscall, but there the copy is being made from a stack local variable so does not trigger the warning. Move put_compat_sigset to compat.h, and mark it static inline. This fixes the WARN on MIPS.
