But if we remove this WARN_ON() we can probably change
set_restore_sigmask() to set TS_RESTORE_SIGMASK and
do saved_mask = blocked.

Perhaps it can even acccept "sigset_t *newmask" and do
set_current_blocked().

Then we can move it up and change the code above to simply as you
suggested. But imho this needs a separate change.

Oleg.
