signals: Fix more rcu assumptions
1) Remove the misleading comment in __sigqueue_alloc() which claims that holding a spinlock is equivalent to rcu_read_lock(). 2) Add a rcu_read_lock/unlock around the __task_cred() access in __sigqueue_alloc() This needs to be revisited to remove the remaining users of read_lock(&tasklist_lock) but that's outside the scope of this patch.
