Subject: vgaarb: fix signal handling in vga_get()
commit 9f5bd30818c42c6c36a51f93b4df75a2ea2bd85e upstream.
There are few defects in vga_get() related to signal hadning:
- we shouldn't check for pending signals for TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
case;
- if we found pending signal we must remove ourself from wait queue
and change task state back to running;
- -ERESTARTSYS is more appropriate, I guess.
