kernel/signal.c: fix typos and coding style
General coding style and comment fixes; no code changes: - Use multi-line-comment coding style. - Put some function signatures completely on one line. - Hyphenate some words. - Spell Posix as POSIX. - Correct typos & spellos in some comments. - Drop trailing whitespace. - End sentences with periods. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
