[pseudo][PATCH 33/34] wrappers: Don't re-block signals in nested wrapper calls

[Mark Hatle <mark.hatle@kernel.crashing.org>]

From: Mark Hatle <mark.hatle@amd.com>

pseudo's own calls to wrapped functions, such as fcntl() for the path
lock, go through the full wrapper and block and restore signals again,
although the outer wrapper already blocked them.  Skip that when this
thread already holds the pseudo lock, and keep the outer wrapper's
saved mask for exec*().

On a tar/chown/find/ls/rm workload of 40,000 files this halves the
rt_sigprocmask calls, from 3.1M to 1.5M.
