[PATCH] powerpc: Implement logging of unhandled signals

[PATCH] powerpc: Implement logging of unhandled signals

[Olof Johansson]

Implement exception-trace sysctl + support to print when a process is
killed due to unhandled signals just as i386 and x86_64 does.

Just like on x86, it can be disabled by setting the sysctl variable
debug.exception-trace, and the messages are rate limited to not create
a DoS exposure.

Fixed the const char definitions, plus the two warnings that the change
brought (printing a ptr as %lx without cast).

[PATCH v3] powerpc: Implement logging of unhandled signals

[Olof Johansson]

Implement show_unhandled_signals sysctl + support to print when a process
is killed due to unhandled signals just as i386 and x86_64 does.

Default to having it off, unlike x86 that defaults on.

Why ? I'd like it on by default :-)
