ia64: ptrace_attach_sync_user_rbs: avoid "task->signal != NULL" checks
Preparation to make task->signal immutable, no functional changes. It doesn't matter which pointer we check under tasklist to ensure the task was not released, ->signal or ->sighand. But we are going to make ->signal refcountable, change the code to use ->sighand. Note: this code doesn't need this check and tasklist_lock at all, it should be converted to use lock_task_sighand(). And, the code under SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED check looks wrong.
